| In a small saucepan, bring whipping cream to a simmer. Remove from
heat and stir in the chocolate pieces and the butter pieces. Place back on stove, on a
very low flame, and stir constantly, just until melted. Remove from stove. If you are
adding liqueur now is the time to stir it in. Pour the mixture into a shallow
bowl, cover and refrigerate, for at least 2 hrs.
Using either a melon baller or a teaspoon, dip through the chilled mixture to form
balls, place on waxed paper.
When you are finished you can dip into your melted chocolate wafers and drizzle or
top immediately with the chopped nuts.
The mixture will keep covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks, you can also
freeze it for up to 3 months.
Melting The Chocolate Wafers:
- Place the three flavors of chocolate each in its own bowl.
- Place one bowl in the microwave and heat at 30 second
- intervals, stirring in between until it is smooth.
- (Be careful not to overheat!)
