Nutella Truffles

It's been a long time since my last post, I know. I hope you'll all forgive me. I have been rather short on time lately, and most of all short on camera. This picture, in fact was taken on my cell phone, if you couldn't tell.

Ingredients:

• 9 oz dark chocolate
• 4 oz heavy cream
• 1 oz corn syrup
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp Nutella
• 1.5 cups puffed rice cereal
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• Chocolate for dipping

Combine the cream and the corn syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil. In a food processor, pulse until the chocolate is in small chunks. With the processor running, stream in the cream. Then add the butter and Nutella. Add in the cereal and sugar. Use your hands or a scoop to portion into bite sized pieces. Precoat by rolling in chocolate. Once hardened, dip again in tempered chocolate, letting the excess chocolate drain off.

Not so hard, and (in my very chocolate-biased opinion) fun. Thanks for sticking with me while the blog undergoes some changes. :)
