INGREDIENTS
Strawberry Cream
- 3 Strawberries (Chopped Fine)
- 1 Tbsp Tequila Rose
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla
- 3 squares White Almond Bark
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese
- 3/4 cup Crushed Shortbread Cookie
Chocolate Layer
- 1 cup Finely Crushed Chocolate Cookies
- 1/2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
Truffle Coating
- 2 cups Dark Chocolate Chips or Chocolate Melts
HOW TO MAKE
- Put the strawberries, Tequila Rose, vanilla, and 2 squares of almond bark in a small mixing bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute
- Mix until smooth (If not melted yet, microwave another 30 seconds)
- Mix in the cream cheese
- Divide this mixture in half, putting the other half in another bowl.
- In the first bowl, add one square of melted almond bark and the shortbread cookie crumbs
- Mix thoroughly and place bowl in the refrigerator
- In the second bowl, add the crushed chocolate cookie crumbs and melted dark chocolate
- Mix thoroughly and place bowl in the refrigerator
- Melt 1 cup of dark chocolate chips
- Put a spoonful into each chocolate mold and tap several times on the counter to release any air bubbles
- Using a clean paintbrush (that has not been used for paint), gently paint the sides of each mold with chocolate
- Set the mold in the fridge to set the chocolate
- After about 10 minutes, pull it out and inspect the sides of the mold for any spots that you missed
- Give them a little touch up of chocolate with your paintbrush and set back in the fridge for 10 minutes
- Put a small pat of the strawberry cream filling into the bottom of each mold, pressing down gently
- Then add a pat of the chocolate filling on top of that, filling each mold most of the way but leaving a little room on the top for chocolate
- Melt another cup of dark chocolate chips
- Pour a spoonful of chocolate on top of each mold (Tap the mold on the counter several times after filling 3 molds to settle the chocolate. If the chocolate doesn’t reach the edges of the mold, add a tiny bit more chocolate in those spots and tap the mold again.)
- Put the mold in the fridge to set
- Once the chocolate has hardened, release the truffles from the mold by gently pushing up on each one from the bottom
