Creme de Menthe Truffles

  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup creme de menthe
  • 4 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons shortening

 Directions

Combine pecans, butter and creme de menthe. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate, covered, until easy to handle, about 1 hour.
With hands lightly dusted with confectioners' sugar, shape mixture into 1-in. balls. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Dip balls in chocolate mixture; let excess drip off. Return to waxed paper; refrigerate until set. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
