Steps:
- Put the chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it just comes to a boil. Pour the cream over the chocolate and stir once to mix the chocolate and cream together. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Uncover and whisk until smooth and shiny. Microwave in 10 second increments if there are any un-melted lumps of chocolate. Stir in the bourbon.
- Press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface of the chocolate and set aside in a cool place until the chocolate is thick and firm enough to hold its shape when rolled, about 2 hours.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment. Use 2 spoons to drop small mounds of chocolate onto the baking sheet. Then, with cold hands, roll each truffle between your open palms to make smooth round balls. You may need to run your hands under cool water frequently as you work.
- Put the pecans on a plate and roll each truffle until well coated. Refrigerate until very cold.

ALMOND-PECAN DATE TRUFFLES
My daughter and I came across a date candy recipe when she was learning about ancient Egypt. We changed some of the spices and nuts to suit our taste. My dad was a beekeeper and Mom always made a coconut date ball for Christmas. The truffles remind me of past Christmases and are ideal for something quick yet festive on a holiday tray. -Lori Daniels, Beverly, West Virginia

Steps:
- Combine the chopped pecans, crushed graham crackers, brown sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.. Add the maple syrup, bourbon, and vanilla extract and use your hands to work all the ingredients until thoroughly combined. Form balls by scooping a heaping tablespoon size amount of mixture and rolling in the palms of your hands to form balls. Place these on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper, parchment, or on a Silpat (what I use). Insert a toothpick into each one. Place in your freezer for about 2 hours, or until set. Remove them about 30 minutes prior to serving. They are delicious even when served still frozen! You can also dip them in melted chocolate fondue style! Let your imagination run.

PECAN PIE TRUFFLES
These festive truffles from Hannah Kaminsky, a columnist at VegNews Magazine, combine the rich flavors of pecan pie under a thin layer of smooth chocolate. (To make these vegan, be sure to use vegan dark chocolate.) Like traditional rum balls, these offer a slightly alcoholic kick, so be sure to monitor any underage guests.

- Form mixture into walnut-sized balls, then place on a cookie sheet and freeze for 2 hours.
- In the top of a double boiler or in a medium stainless steel bowl set over a pot of gently simmering water, melt chocolate (we recommend tempering the chocolate, but if you don't, they'll still be delicious, just a bit messy).
