Hazelnut Truffles

Directions

1. 1
   Toast ground hazelnut on medium heat in a pan, constantly stirring.
2. 2
   In a bowl, mix warm nuts with alcohol and sugar and knead into a dough.
3. 3
   If dough is too firm, add some warm water.
4. 4
   Melt the chocolate in a bain marie and temper, if you can.
5. 5
   Form walnut-size balls from the nut-dough.
6. 6
   Dip in chocolate and set on aluminum foil to firm up.
7. 7
   Let cool and firm up for about 2 hours.
8. 8
   Do not chill in the fridge as this will cause condensation moisture and also will ruin the tempering (if you did temper).
