Method

  1. Finely chop the chocolate and put it in a heatproof bowl.
  2. Heat the cream until it starts to steam, without letting it boil hard.
  3. Pour it over the chocolate, wait 2 minutes, then stir to a smooth ganache.
  4. Add the butter and, once the mixture is lukewarm, the Tim Tam Tum.
  5. Chill for 2 hours, roll into small balls with cold hands and coat in cocoa.
  6. Keep them in the fridge in a closed container and take them out a few minutes before serving.

Why it works
The bitterness of the chocolate contrasts with the sweetness, vanilla and fruit of the liqueur.
Tip
If the ganache is too soft, chill it for another 30 minutes. The liqueur is never cooked, so it keeps its alcohol.
To serve
Three truffles per plate, dusted with natural cocoa.
Meet the liqueur

This recipe contains alcohol. Cooking does not remove it completely, so a dish made with liqueur should never be presented as alcohol-free.
