1 1/2 oz tequila
1 oz Godiva liquor
2 tablespoon chocolate syrup
3/4 oz cream or half and half
2 oz orange juice
Cocoa -for the rim of glass
Ice
Wet the edge of the glass and rim with cocoa. Combine all ingredients in a shaker and pour into a glass.
- 8 ounces of semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate (high quality, 62% cacao or higher), chopped into small pieces
- 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (or other extract flavor)
Truffle coatings
- Cocoa powder
- Finely chopped walnuts
- Finely chopped almonds
- optional: coconut
1 In a small, heavy saucepan bring the heavy whipping cream to a simmer stir constantly.
2 Place the chocolate in a separate bowl. Pour the cream over the chocolate, add the vanilla, and allow to stand for a few minutes then stir until smooth.
3 Allow to cool, then place in the refrigerator for two hours. Remove and with a teaspoon roll out balls of the chocolate. Roll in your hands quickly (as it will melt from the heat of your hands) and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place in the refrigerator overnight.
4 Roll in cocoa powder, chopped nuts or coconut and serve, or place back in the refrigerator until needed.
