Chocolate Truffles

Halloween is just around the corner and most people would probably buy those tiny chocolate bars to give to the kids. For those who aim for a little sophisticated adult Halloween party, you probably would want to opt for something a little different, like chocolate truffles.
Truffles are quite expensive if you buy them from stores. They are however, extremely easy to make and you can decorate them to fit your taste buds.
Many truffles recipes use heavy cream and semi-sweet chocolate or bitter sweet chocolate, some may add fruity flavored liqueurs. I usually like to coat them with semi-sweet chocolate or white chocolate then dip into ground walnuts (you can use any type of nuts), coconut shreds, and sprinkle candies. Dipping truffles straight into unsweeten cocoa powder is great also. Here is a great site for a simple truffle recipe.
