Ingredients for Almond Disaronno Truffles

- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- Fat Free Sweetened Condensed Milk

How to Make Almond Disaronno Truffles
- Melt chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and completely melted.
- Remove from microwave and stir in the sweetened condensed milk and Disaronno almond liqueur until fully combined and creamy.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to scoop.
- Once firm, scoop out rounded tablespoons of the chocolate mixture.
- Roll each scoop into a ball, approximately the size of a large marble.
- Place the truffles on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate while you prepare the coating.
- In a food processor, pulse the slivered almonds until finely ground. Add the cocoa powder and pulse until just combined. Do not over-process.
- Place the almond-cocoa mixture in a resealable plastic bag.
- Add a few truffles at a time to the bag and gently shake until they are evenly coated.
- Remove the coated truffles from the bag and place them in small candy cups or paper liners.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the coating to set. Serve at room temperature.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
