CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
Steps:
- Place the cream in a heat-proof bowl and set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook until heated through. Using a wire whisk, slowly stir the white chocolate into the warm cream until completely melted. Whisk in the Baileys and vanilla. Cover and chill for one hour or until pliable but firm enough to scoop.
- With two teaspoons or a 1 1/4-inch ice cream scoop, make dollops of the chocolate mixture and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes, until firm enough to roll into rough spheres.
- Melt the bittersweet chocolate in a heat-proof bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
- Drizzle the melted bittersweet chocolate over the truffles. Chill until ready to serve.

SAFFRON-SCENTED WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
Saw this recipe in the Finnish Elle magazine at the hair dresser's in November - couldn't get a copy, googled, hopeful, and found this at Anne's Food blog. I *think* it is the same one I was drooling over while getting my hair done! Not sure who to credit now, but it's an interesting recipe nonetheless!
