Donna's aunt makes the most delicious truffles ever! At the reception they had adorable little boxes with two truffles for each person!
I came home wanting to learn how to make some. I checked my favorite food blog and there was a recipe! Click here for the link. Yippe! I was so excited. I tried the oreo cookie ones yesterday. I changed the recipe a little. I used mint oreos and chocolate chips. Here is my take. Aren't the beautiful?!
They were good, but unfortunately not as good as Aunt Carol's. Donna I think I need truffle making lessons from your Aunt!!

Wow, you are adventurous! They look amazing. I want one.
I’m so glad that you were inspired! It’s no easy task–truffle making is no joke! My Aunt Carol has been making them for years, and she does take on the occasional apprentice. She is quite the artist and gourmet in her own right, I’ll show you more of her painting and talent next time. The family tradition is that she “gifts” her nieces with truffle favors at their wedding, after me, there’s only one more to go. Great job with your first batch, Melissa, very impressive!
P.S. I hope you don’t mind, but I sent my Aunt Carol the link to the blog so that she could see this posting. She would be so happy that she inspired you!
You go girl, I’m so proud of U melissa, U have learned so many things, as a young mom, and a busy one too, but U are always trying new things, Adam is so lucky to have found U, or should I say God has put U together. U keep learning cause our family will enjoy. U kind of remind me of a young girl in the 60’s that learned how to make tamals by scarch, cake baking,hair styling, clothing mendind, all that good stuff, that girls now a days don’t have time for, how sad for them. Love Mom.Bsaua
