INGREDIENTS

3 cups crushed shortbread cookies
2 cups powdered sugar
¼ cup corn syrup
½ cup chopped pecans (optional)
¾ cup chocolate chips or chocolate bar, finely chopped
⅓ cup cocoa powder
2 teaspoons Dave’s Ancho Powder
½ cup liqueur of choice (I used rum)
chocolate candy coating (or almond bark) for dipping

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients. Mix well until a “dough” forms.
Freeze dough for 30 minutes, or until hard enough to form balls. Break off small pieces and roll between your palms until you have lots of small truffle-sized balls. Re-freeze until ready to dip.
Melt chocolate candy coating in a double boiler. Dip each frozen ball in the chocolate. Set to dry on wax paper.

NOTES

Liqueur suggestions: Bailey’s, Kahlua, rum, or bourbon. I like to eat these frozen or refrigerated, but you can also serve them at room temperature. Mix it up by using white or dark chocolate! I used dark chocolate chips – yum!
