Eggnog Truffles

2¼ hours | 15 min prep

2 dozen

8 (1 ounce) squares premium white baking chocolate (we tested with

Baker's)

1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar

1/4 cup butter, softened

1/4 cup refrigerated eggnog

2 tablespoons dark rum

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 cup finely chopped pecans, toasted

6 ounces vanilla candy coating

Melt white chocolate in a glass bowl. Add powdered sugar, butter, and

eggnog; stir gently until mixture is smooth.

Add rum and nutmeg, stirring just until blended.

Cover and freeze at least 2 hours.

Let truffle mixture stand at room temperature 1 to 2 minutes to soften, if necessary.

Using 2 small spoons, shape mixture into 1" balls. Quickly roll in pecans.

Place on a wax paper-lined jellyroll pan; cover and freeze until firm.

Melt candy coating according to package directions. Remove truffles from freezer; reshape into balls, if necessary.

Using two forks, quickly dip each truffle into melted coating. Place on wax paper to harden. Store truffles in freezer up to one week.

Marsha~ this sounds delicious, my DH loves anything eggnog~ have you made this? I think I'm going

surprise DH and make this tomorrow.

I love the spices, nutmeg is always good.

I have a kirchner's rum will that be a good substitute?

Please let me know. I am so going to make this tomorrow

Thank you for posting smileys/smile.gif

 
Diane, I love eggnog too. This came in my email this week, I've not made them. Did you ever make

the pumpkin smoothie? How was it?
