How to Make Grand Marnier Balls

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream, 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) unsalted butter, and ½ cup granulated sugar.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Stir in ¼ cup Grand Marnier liqueur, 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (finely chopped), and 1 cup finely crushed chocolate sandwich cookies.
Mix until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to handle.
Once chilled, shape the mixture into 42 small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
Roll the truffles in chocolate sprinkles.
Chill for another 30 minutes before serving or freeze for longer storage.
