Steps:
- Line a quarter sheet with parchment paper.
- Put all four ingredients into a sauce pan, set it on the stove and turn heat to medium. Stir the ingredients until they all melt and turn golden, then stop stirring. Let the mixture come to a boil, and stir only occasionally while it boils. Boil for at least 6 minutes or until bubble dull in sheen, and when you stir, the mixture stringly sticks to side of pan.
- Pour the mixture onto the lined pan and smooth it out like bark. Set it aside to harden, about 20 minutes at room temperature.
- Break up the bark into chunks and grind them up in a high speed blender or a food processor. Don't grind too long or it will turn to paste. You just want crumbs. Set aside and make the truffles.
- Melt 1 cup of the chips in a microwave at 60 seconds or water bath, and stir in the coconut milk. Once chocolate is glossy, add in the butter and vanilla and stir until butter is melted. If you need to microwave it to help with more melted, do so in 10 second increments.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl and fold in the crumbs. I folded in about 1/2 cup of crumbs and set the rest aside in a container in the refrigerator for sprinkling on other desserts. OR if you don't want to make the praline, fold in 1/4 mini chocolate chips instead.
- Set the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or a bit less until it is scoopable so you can make balls.
- I scooped using a small cookie scoop, rolled them with clean hands and placed them on a freshly lined pan. If the mixture sticks to your hands, dust your hands with cocoa powder.
- Set the rolled truffles into the refrigerator for a few minutes to harden for dipping.
- Melt the remaining chips in the microwave. I used a 2-cup pyrex measuring cup so it is deep enough for dipping. Microwave at 60 seconds and stir until all chips are melted.
- Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, and spin to allow excess to drip off. Use a fork to lower the truffle for dipping or a tooth pick to dip.
- Sprinkle the truffles with nuts or sprinkles and set back in refrigerator to harden.
- Store Chocolate Praline Truffles in an airtight container in refrigerator for 1 week.

CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
Steps:
- Chop the chocolates finely with a sharp knife. Place them in a heat-proof mixing bowl.
- Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it just boils. Turn off the heat and allow the cream to sit for 20 seconds. Pour the cream through a fine-meshed sieve into the bowl with chocolate. With a wire whisk, slowly stir the cream and chocolates together until the chocolate is completely melted. Whisk in the Grand Marnier, if using, coffee, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
- With 2 teaspoons, spoon round balls of the chocolate mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, until firm. Roll each dollop of chocolate in your hands to roughly make a round ball. Roll in confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, or both. These will keep refrigerated for weeks, but serve at room temperature.
CHOCOLATE PRALINES

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray .
- Remove 3 tablespoons from the ½ cup of chocolate chips and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine both sugars, the cream, the butter, and the salt over medium heat. Stir until the sugars and butter dissolve. Brush down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming, and insert a candy thermometer .
- Continue to cook without stirring until the thermometer reaches 240 F. Once the proper temperature is reached, remove the candy from the heat, take out the thermometer, and immediately add the pecans and the remaining 1/3 cup of chocolate chips.
- Begin to stir the candy vigorously. The chocolate will melt and the candy will start to get lighter in color and more opaque. Continue to stir until the candy starts to hold its shape. It should still be easy to stir, however. It is important not to stir too much, as pralines quickly go from fluid to rock-solid.
- Once it is a lighter, opaque brown and holds its shape, quickly begin to drop small spoonfuls of the candy onto the prepared baking sheet. Work quickly to form the candies, as the pralines will start to set in the saucepan.
- If the candy stiffens before you're done scooping, add a spoonful of very hot water and stir until it loosens, then continue scooping until you have formed all the pralines.
- Place the reserved 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave them until melted about 40 seconds.
- Scrape the melted chocolate into a small zip-close bag and cut off the corner. Drizzle melted chocolate over the pralines in a decorative pattern.
- Place the pralines in the refrigerator to set the chocolate, about 15 minutes.
- Store chocolate pralines in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Chop the chocolate and tip into a large bowl. Put the cream and butter into a saucepan and heat gently until the butter melts and the cream reaches simmering point. Remove from heat, then pour over the chocolate. Stir the chocolate and cream together until you have a smooth mixture. Add any flavourings to the truffle mix at this stage (divide the mixture between bowls and mix in liqueurs or other flavourings, a tsp at a time, to taste. Try bourbon, Grand Marnier, coconut rum or the zest and juice of an orange), or leave plain. Cool and chill for at least 4 hrs.
- To shape the truffles, dip a melon baller in hot water and scoop up balls of the mixture, then drop the truffles onto greaseproof paper. Or lightly coat your hands in flavourless oil (such as sunflower) and roll the truffles between your palms. You could also use a piping bag to pipe rounds onto baking parchment.
- Coat your truffles immediately after shaping. Tip toppings into a bowl and gently roll the truffles until evenly coated, then chill on baking parchment. Try: crushed, shelled pistachio nuts; lightly toasted desiccated coconut; or roll a truffle flavoured with orange zest and juice in cocoa powder. To coat in chocolate, line a baking tray with baking parchment. Melt 100g milk, dark or white chocolate for 10 truffles. Allow chocolate to cool slightly. With a fork, pick up one truffle at a time and hold over the bowl of melted chocolate. Spoon the chocolate over the truffle until well-coated. Place on the baking tray, then chill.
- To give as presents, place 8-10 truffles in individual foil or paper cases inside small, lined boxes tied with ribbon. Keep in the fridge until you're ready to give them. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for three days, or frozen for up to a month. Defrost in the fridge overnight.

EASY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
For these five-ingredient truffles, it takes only a few minutes to whip up a batch of rich ganache from heavy cream and semisweet chocolate. After pouring the mixture into a pan and chilling, you can choose to take the easy route and simply cut them into bite-size squares, or roll up your sleeves and form them into beautiful bonbons.

- Line a small baking tin with baking paper. Mix together the butter, sugar, honey and cream in a saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring it to a boil and let it bubble for around 4-5 minutes, until the colour turns a light gold caramel colour. Add the hazelnuts, 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla and salt and mix well. Pour into the tin and allow to set until hard.
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces and set aside 1 cup. Place the remaining 3/4 cup into a bowl. In a saucepan, heat the cream and butter until the butter melts then continue to heat, stirring until bubbles start to appear. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of salt and stir through. Pour the mixture over the chocolate pieces. Gently stir until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Add the praline and mix well. Pour into a bowl and place in the fridge to set for 1/2 an hour.
