I never imagined I’d say this, but I think I might be sick of chocolate.
Well, more appropriately, I think I am sick from chocolate.
Well, I thought it would be a good idea to sample the truffles I made tonight. Yay. They were good, but I think they put me over the top. I am in a major cocoa-coma. Hopefully I snap out of it. You know, in time to eat more chocolate.
You must trust me on this one. Due to my crazy schedule as of late, this will probably be the only St. Patrick’s Day recipe I can get up, but at least it’s a good one, right?! And the best thing about these Homemade Baileys Truffles is that they are so rich and decadent,
you won’t need to eat many to satisfy your sweet tooth!
