When liking coffee is part of adulting, enjoying liquor is the next half! Presenting my liquor-infused Baileys Chocolate Truffles that are so ever luxurious and classy. The addition of Baileys liquor will be sure to notch up your usual truffles and with this recipe, wow your guests!

The concept of my Bailey Chocolate Truffles uses a simple recipe of whisking and mixing. However, I went a step further (optional) to coat it with tampered chocolate before adding my toppings. Therefore, it holds its shape well even in tropical temperatures.

Should you want to skip the trouble of tampering, it is perfectly fine as well. In order to coat, simply use a small fork and roll the assembled chocolate truffle around your desired toppings. Nonetheless, be careful working with its especially in warmer climates!

For myself, I have chose to coat it with lightly toasted coconut, white chocolate and roasted peanuts! Feel free to creative with these sweet treats!

On a side note, you can tell I am really proud of these when I use a larger image than what I use usually.

Without further ado, here’s the recipe!
