A Symphony or rather a selection of fresh cream chocolate truffles, this is my basic recipe with a few indulgent added extras…….such as toasted almonds, stem ginger with brandy or rum! These decadent rich truffles are perfect to finish of a dinner party with, especially if you serve them on a Truffle Tree – Recipe #270171 Do try to use very high quality minimum 70% solids chocolate, it really does make such a difference to the taste. They also freeze very well – which means you can make them in advance and at leisure; they only take about 1 hour to defrost at room temperature.
As good as the title is gross. My mum has made this for Christmas as long as i can remember and longer. I did not really like it as a kid but you kind of really grow into it. You may use whatever nuts or nut mixture you want, this year i used almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts and coconut which turned out great and looks very festive.
Okay so they’re not a secret anymore. I hesitated to publish this recipe, but it’s just too good not to share. If you don’t like Brandy, I suppose dark rum, Grand Marnier, or Bourbon would be good, too.
This recipe is a copy-cat of recipe #47819 by Rita. We can’t get the ingredients here in Australia, so I came up with this, but do check her recipe.
