Hazelnut Truffles

• 100 g ground hazelnuts
• 2 tablespoons brandy or 2 tablespoons cognac
• 100 g powdered sugar
• 125 g milk chocolate

1. Toast ground hazelnut on medium heat in a pan, constantly stirring.
2. In a bowl, mix warm nuts with alcohol and sugar and knead into a dough.
3. If dough is too firm, add some warm water.
4. Melt the chocolate in a bain marie and temper, if you can.
5. Form walnut-size balls from the nut-dough.
6. Dip in chocolate and set on aluminum foil to firm up.
7. Let cool and firm up for about 2 hours.
8. Do not chill in the fridge as this will cause condensation moisture and also will ruin the tempering (if you did temper).
