CHOCOLATE PRALINE TRUFFLES
What a sweet addition to the holiday platter of Christmas cookies and confections! A bit fussy to make, but WELL WORTH the time and satisfaction of making your own. COOKING TIME includes "standing time" and chilling time....so don't just STAND there--CHILL out darling! Ho Ho Ho! Those gals at Gooseberry Patch sure know what they're doing, now don't they!?

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350; buttter a 10x15 jelly roll pan; set aside.
- Stir together pecans, brown sugar and 4 T. whipping cream; spread in prepared pan; bake for 20 minutes (coating will be slightly crystallized); stir one time; remove from oven; stir the whole works (should be of "chopped nuts texture/consistence"--will be used for rolling the truffle/chocolate in later on) and cool.
- Microwave the chocolate chips and remaining cream in a large bowl--about 3-4 minutes; whisk several times until smooth (microwave at 15-second intervals to prevent burning); whisk in the butter pieces and the almond liqueur; let stand 20 minutes.
- Beat the chocolate mixture with an electric mixer for 4 minutes or until SOFT PEAKS form (do not overbeat!); cover and chill at least four hours.
- Shape chocolate into one-inch balls, roll in pecan-sugar; cover and chill up to one week (who are we kidding? these will NOT last for one week!) or freeze for up to a month (seriously!?).

Steps:
- PRALINE:.
- Coat a 9-inch round cake pan with the vegetable oil and set aside.
- Combine the sugar and water in a 1-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan and cook over high heat until the mixture begins to turn a light caramel colour (about 8 minutes).
- Brush down the sides of the pans two times with a pastry brush dipped in water to prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
- When the mixture becomes caramel coloured, quickly stir in the toasted hazelnuts with a wooden spoon, coating them completely with the caramel.
- Remove the pan from the heat, and immediately turn the hazelnut mixture into the oiled cake pan and let it cool completely (about 30 minutes).
- Break the praline into pieces and pulverize to a powder in a food processor.
- TRUFFLES:.
- Place 1 pound of the chocolate in a 2-quart mixing bowl. In a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, bring cream to a boil.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate and let stand for one minute, then whisk until thoroughly blended.
- Mix in 3/4 of the hazelnut praline mixture and blend well.
- Cover and let cool to room temp and chill for 2-3 hours.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Use a piping bag to pipe out 60 1-inch mounds.
- Cover and let chill in freezer for 2 hours.
- Dust your hands with cocoa powder and roll the mounds into balls (these will be the truffle centers) and let chill for another 2 hours in the freezer.
- Remove truffles from the freezer and bring to cool- room temperature so the outer coating won't crack when they are dipped.
- Line 2 more baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Melt and temper the remaining 1 1/2 pounds chocolate.
- Put a truffle centre into the chocolate, coat completely, remove with a fork, and place on the pan.
- Sprinkle the remaining praline on the top of the truffles before the chocolate sets.
- ENJOY!

- Line a small baking tin with baking paper. Mix together the butter, sugar, honey and cream in a saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring it to a boil and let it bubble for around 4-5 minutes, until the colour turns a light gold caramel colour. Add the hazelnuts, 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla and salt and mix well. Pour into the tin and allow to set until hard.
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces and set aside 1 cup. Place the remaining 3/4 cup into a bowl. In a saucepan, heat the cream and butter until the butter melts then continue to heat, stirring until bubbles start to appear. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of salt and stir through. Pour the mixture over the chocolate pieces. Gently stir until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Add the praline and mix well. Pour into a bowl and place in the fridge to set for 1/2 an hour.
- Roll tablespoons of ganache into balls (I use a small cookie scoop to portion it then use hands to roll them into balls) then place on a plate lined with baking paper, into the freezer to firm up again.
