Over the past few years, holiday truffles have become quite a tradition in my family. It’s not Christmas without a batch of truffles chilling in the fridge while I rig up some double-boilers in the kitchen. They’re something I never really consider making any other time of the year, which is the making of the best festive holiday treats.
I love making truffles because they’re pretty, decadent, and (shh!!) actually pretty easy – the perfect combo for holiday gifting and partying. They’re especially perfect for this time of year because not only do they make the most adorable, impressive, delicious Christmas gifts for family and friends, but they are also the perfect fancy bite-sized dessert for your New Year’s Eve spread! Nothing goes better with champagne than truffles, people. Let’s not fight the simple facts.
