Ingredients
  

Truffle Mixture
  • 8 oz Semisweet Baking Chocolate Use high-quality chocolate for best results.
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter Regular butter works best—avoid margarine.
  • 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter Natural peanut butter works for a more authentic taste.
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream Substituting with milk may result in a less indulgent treat.
  • 2 tbsp Whiskey Feel free to try different whiskeys or substitute with rum.
Coating

Garnish (Optional)
  • 1/4 cup Finely Chopped Peanuts Use for visual appeal and added texture.

Method
 

Chocolate Preparation
  1. Set up a double boiler on low heat. Combine finely chopped semisweet baking chocolate and unsalted butter. Stir until melted and smooth, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. In a separate mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, heavy cream, and whiskey. Mix until silky and consistent, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the peanut butter blend. Stir until uniform and creamy. Cover and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
  4. Scoop mounds of the fudge mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and roll into balls. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
  5. Melt tempered chocolate. Coat each truffle and place back on the lined baking sheet. Optionally, sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
  6. Refrigerate coated truffles for about 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
