Nutella Bourbon Chocolate Truffles

I have pronounced Nutella a couple of different ways in this video according to the following link:
http://www.howjsay.com/index.php?word=nutella&submit=Submit
both are correct. (Nut - ella and Newt-ella)

I have little patience with comments about how I pronounce my words, just an advance warning (but then people that make comments like that are unlikely to take the time to read the description box, lol! )

12 oz (about 2 cups chopped or chipped) chocolate
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 cups sweetened chestnut spread (Nutella)
1/4 cup bourbon whiskey
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa (to dip or dust finished truffles in, optional)
Another 12 oz chopped chocolate (or chocolate chips) for melting to dip truffles in.
Place chocolate in medium bowl.
Heat whipping cream to simmering and pour over chocolate in bowl. Let sit for two minutes and then stir until smooth.
Add in Nutella and bourbon and stir until blended.
Cover and chill for 4 hours or until firm.
Line cookie sheets with cooking parchment or waxed paper. Make small ball shapes using about a tsp of the chilled chocolate/nutella mixture and place on cookie sheet. Freeze the balls until firm about an hour.
Melt second amount of chocolate in in medium bowl in the microwave.
Using hands (or spoon as discussed in video) drop frozen truffles in melted chocolate and roll with hands until completely coated. Roll in cocoa if desired or decorate with sprinkles while coating is still wet..
Place on cookie sheet to harden at room temperature or place in refrigerator.
Store in the fridge or freezer.
Note** you many need more chocolate to coat 60 of them, I had to melt about another cup of chips to have enough.

I think the recipe says with gloves not with bare hands..

@TheCamzarecOOl It didn't mention gloves.

I have not read through all your comments, but I can tell you that, as a cake decorator, I make LOTS of ganache (blended cream and chocolate). I make it in the microwave all the time. As for decorating your truffles, I agree that melted chocolate and cocoa powder is too much. I would probably roll undipped truffles in the cocoa powder, and then decorate the dipped chocolates as you did.

@joannemspence1963 Thanks very much for your input on this!

[foreverinbloom14]

do you have any recipes of your own instead of out of cook books and store bought dough?

[yoyomax12]

@foreverinbloom14 I have a few on my channel, but somehow I don't think you'd be interested.

I love your voice overs. They are concise and professional. I found your site by accident yesterday and have already made these and your chocolate puddle cookies. My husband doesn't understand what is going on here, as I never made sweets before! You inspired me! :) Thank you for your time!

Personally... (and this is my taste) I would use like...half of the amount of nutella. Because nutella is REALLY strong tasting, but hey, that's just me. Thank you for the recipe!
