Please post your best truffle recipes - I lost mine somewhere!

Ree's (Pioneer Woman) chocolate truffles with sea salt drew BIG raves at a baby shower I held yesterday. And they were so easy, too: five ingredients (including the salt!). (I don't have the link handy, but you can just search her site.)

White Chocolate Truffles

 

1/4 C butter

1/2 C confectioner's sugar

1 teaspoon almond extract

1 egg yolk

8 oz. white chocolate, broken into small pieces

1 C chopped blanched almonds, lightly toasted

Makes about 2 dozen truffles

Melt chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add sugar, egg yolk and almond extract; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Transfer to a shallow glass casserole dish. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.

Shape mixture into 1 inch balls. Roll in almonds. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours. Place in miniature foil cups at room temperature to serve. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

 

(I have made these a couple of times without the egg yolk - I just replaced it with a couple of tablespoons of cream and they were fine)
