#HolidayHowTo: Chocolate & Honeycomb Truffles!

Hey Guys!

Today I thought I'd share a delicious recipe with you. I'm going to show you how to make Chocolate & Honeycomb Truffles (mmmm!) These are surprisingly super easy to make and are one of the easiest things I've ever made. They taste soo good and you only need a few, easy to find, ingredients, so lets get started:)

You'll need:

A small amount of icing sugar

Cocoa Powder for rolling

100g of Milk chocolate

100g of Dark chocolate

40g of Almonds

150g worth of crunchie bars (Just under 4 bars)
2 tbsp of Single Cream

First, you want to put some boiling water in a pan and put a bowl in the pan, making sure it doesn't touch the water. Then turn on the heat so the water is simmering (about halfway).

Then I started to break up the chocolate into the bowl and I also added the single cream and left it until it was completely melted.

Meanwhile, I put some chopped/flakes of almond into a frying pan and put them on a high heat to toast them. These don't have to stay on the heat for long at all.

Whilst they are toasting, I began to crush up the crunchie bars with a rolling pin, so they were in small(ish) chunks.

My chocolate was melted by this time, so I combined the almond flakes and crunchie chunks with the chocolate and cream and mixed it all together well.

After the ingredients were combined, I sprinkled a worksurface and my hands with cocoa powder and began taking teaspoon sized chunks of the mixture. I then rolled it into a ball, using the cocoa to make sure it didn't stick. Please take care with this step, as the mixture will still be hot and don't want you to burn yourself! Then, place the balls of mixture onto a baking tray.

Afterwards, cover the tray/s with kitchen roll and place them in the fridge for 1 hour, until they are set and firm.

When they were out of the fridge, I placed them on a plate and sprinkled them with icing sugar. 

And now... They're ready to eat! These are super yummy and have an amazing texture, just like truffles. If you decide to make these, don't forget to use any social media site you have to send me a picture using #HolidayHowTo and I'll take a look:)
