Christmas Truffles
The Christmas Candy Trinity at our house consists of Truffles, Majeskas, and Bourbon Balls. Christmas Truffles have delighted my Christmas since I was old enough to walk. Rich, not too sweet, and totally decadent – the stuff culinary of dreams!
Christmas Truffles
1/2 Cup Sugar
4 tbsp. flour
2 Cup 1/2 &1/2
2 egg yolks
3 1/2 bags Ghiradelli semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
Mix sugar and flour, stirring together in a double boiler. Add 1/2 and 1/2 gradually. Heat over double boiler, stirring constantly. Add egg yolks slightly beaten. Cook until thickened. Cool.
Melt 3.5 bags of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Mix with custard. Sit overnight. Roll into balls. Roll balls either in unsweetened cocoa or sprinkles of your color choice.
A Santa favorite! Only sprinkles on Santa’s plate Christmas morning at our house!
These look delicious! I’ll have to try them next week!
Thanks for visiting me on my SITS day the other week!
Oh wow! I will have to try these! Santa has a treat in store for him at your house!
Oh, those look so delicious! I wish I had the energy to make these, I should see if I can make Andrew can.
YUMMY!! Is there anything better than sugary sweets this time of year? I don’t think so!!
Thanks for the blog makeover compliment! I was kind of attached to my old header so I went through a couple of days of withdrawls, but everyone has been so sweet and I’m getting used to it now. (I mean, it WAS my idea and all… and I DID design it myself… but still… )
Blessings, and Merry Christmas!

Those look amazing! I’ve never even thought about making truffles before. I’m definitely going to have to try this recipe.
Hey friend!
Those sound absolutely DIVINE! Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. I will definitely have to show this to my hubby and get him to give it a try.
Maryleigh, I am SO thankful we met this year and that I can carry your friendship with me into the coming New Year!
I am praying that you and your precious family have a blessed Christmas and a wonderful New Year filled with nothing but peace and joy.
