Enchanting Chocolate Mint Truffle Delights
Note: Use a good quality unsweetened chocolate like Callebaut, Vahlrona or Scharffen-
Berger (perhaps you have a favorite). Bakers chocolate is very grainy when used in low-
carb sweets so it’s not recommended. Total carbs 99. You can pipe the mixture into
different types of cups for something different or pleasing to the eye. You can also vary
the flavoring as you like. Bourbon is especially good with chocolate.
