How to Make Chocolate Whiskey Truffles

  1. Melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate and 1/4 cup of unsalted butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
  2. Stir in 1 cup of finely crushed chocolate cookies and 2 tablespoons of your favorite whiskey.
  3. Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover, and chill for at least 45 minutes, or until firm enough to handle.
  4. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil. Drop rounded tablespoons of the truffle mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each truffle.
  5. Freeze for 15 minutes to firm up.
  6. In a small bowl, sift together 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1/3 cup granulated sugar.
  7. Roll each frozen truffle in the cocoa-sugar mixture to coat.
  8. Place the truffles in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Can be made up to a week in advance.
  9. Let the truffles stand at room temperature for about 15 minutes before serving to allow them to soften slightly.
