Your spouse is so lucky to have all that great cooking! Wish I could make deserts like you! Very good teaching skills. I appreciate you explaining everything so throughly!

[@paddlingpuppies]

Just rec'd your cookbook; only the second I've bought in my entire life (I'm 74). Bourbon also works well with this recipe; I made them a few days ago.

[@AliciaNyblade]

I made these, rolled in toasted pecans, and brought them to a party yesterday. Everyone loved them. Thanks for a great recipe!

Oops I meant fellow lefty bake 💕

Love this guy, such a fun personality, thank you

[@AngelaGWillis]

Great recipe, John! It's a tradition in our family during the holidays to make these kinds of truffles. It started at Thanksgiving when we were making pumpkin pie for dessert and my young son said, "but we always have some chocolate, too!" So, I taught him how to make these and he has made them ever since. He uses a variety of flavorings and coatings, but we learned that in order to give them that "snap" you get when you eat a professionally made truffle, you dip them a second time in melted chocolate after rolling, just before adding the nuts, etc.

[@barbarariley2382]

Found him about two weeks ago and is now one if my top faves! What a great attitude and great presentation ‼️

[@AmberBocks3000]

On a trip to Belgium, I purchased some chocolates that had Earl Grey tea in them - very unusual but I loved them. When I ran out, I made truffles with the tea leaves and they turned out great (if you decide you’re tired of Brandy 😉).

[@architaanand3136]

Sounds lovely. Want to try them too. Can you please share the recipe

[@stellarmori]

@@architaanand3136 you are literally on a video of a recipe

[@ladykathrynperry9094]

I love ❤️ this idea!

[@TheBlackbeautti]

I'm gonna try peppermint tea but does it have to be room temp?

[@jeantaua9053]

A few years ago, I worked at IRS close to Christmas time. We all brought a treat to share with every one. There were these little cookies, ball shaped that I really liked. Funny thing is, no one else seemed to like them. I sat at my computer doing my work and munching on these cookies. It was the end of the day so I straightened up my area and got ready to leave and I stood up and immediately was very dizzy. No one bothered to tell me the little cookies were bourbon balls. I don't drink alcohol and had no idea people put it in cookies. I had quite a merry little Christmas that night.

[@ibizahippie17]

I have tried baking an oreo cake and chocolate chip cookie using preppy kitchen recipe. Both turned out fabulous. This weekend my daughter and i gonna make the heart shaped valentines cookies

[@karenshurley4793]

I’d have to make two batches; Brandy and Baileys!!

“Or just walk away. It’ll be fine.” 🤣 I have to say, I watched one of your videos and you absolutely won me over. I love how cool, calm, and collected you are, and I especially love these recipes! Thank you! ♥️

Your joy is so contagious! Love your channel! ♥️

[@janisblack2183]

Thank-you John! I’ve been looking for a good recipe for Brandied Truffles. I like all the options plus the other option of raspberry powder and possibly my candied orange peel. They will be a wonderful addition to the menu for my Christmas dinner guests as a Mise Bouche. I know them well so I’m going to have to make a double batch and surprise varieties. ❤😊🎄🦃

[@latinabeeotch417]

As a kid I ate a whole bunch of chocolate truffles that had peppermint schnapps in them not realizing that it was alcohol. I ate about 6 and then took the hardest nap I ever taken lol thank god for kid metabolism cuz I woke up fine! Scared the s*** outta my mom though haha 😆

[@AliciaNyblade]

I had a similar experience with Jello shots at a Fourth of July party (thankfully, I was of drinking age, but just barely at the time of this story and so booze was still new to me). I was at a block party and there were all these tables around with food and drink everyone had made. I saw Jello shots, triple-layer ones with red, white, and blue Jello in little plastic cups and I thought, "What a cute idea!" I had about four or five within a few minutes, assuming they were just a festive, non-alcoholic dessert. Needless to say, I went home early from the party and also hit the couch for the hardest nap I'd ever had.

[@FiercedeityBrad]

I drank a ton of eggnog at christmas when i was in 4th grade and it was spiked and i passed out all day lol. My mom was like "you're drunk!" Lol

[@erincaffrey7106]

LMAO

[@kathyl4893]

Lmao , the same thing happened to me but I wasn’t eating truffles ... I was at a party where some adults were drinking and there were a lot of kid . I had a cup of coke left on the counter and 5 minutes later I came back to drink the coke and my dads cup of wine was literally besides my cup of coke so with my 8 year old mind , I didn’t think much and grabbed my dads wine . Then I drank like half the cup of wine and then I remember my reaction being like “this is not my coke ... whats this ?” But somehow I didn’t get drunk 🤔 I remember very well that I stayed up all night in the party and I wasn’t like dizzy or something 😂 I think I can take alcohol 😜

[@toothless3835]

My cousin and I did that with jello shots but we didn't pass out, we became super hyper and a bit crazy appearently.

[@nathaliegermanos9496]

Made these for my friends birthday and she LOVED them ! I left a sample for me and tasted them and they are the BEST

[@camilahearst4171]

Thank you! You gave us many important tips and a great recipe!

[@gilbertzapata7684]

If I'm making virgin truffles. Do I substitute the brandy with more Cream? Loving the energy and helpful videos. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes.

[@gustavdesouza335]

I have enjoyed your baking so much that, (especially the bloopers as well/ enjoy the giggle or two) I got some of my friends hooked onto watching and now we try out a recipe during weekends and compare who's is the best On another note: In this video, your kitchen changed drastically, like the open-plan as well

[@maitrydobiwala9508]

How to store the truffles? Also, what is the shelf life?

[@JFongStyle]

Thank you for this video! In the written recipe on your website, butter is not listed as an ingredient, but it is used in this video. So is it optional, or is it much richer and yummier with the butter?

[@jeanmartin6410]

He makes me smile!

[@shonaranae4588]

Can these be left out like fudge or should they be refrigerated because of the cream?

[@JWAChicago]

yummmm -- looking forward to whipping up a batch of these. You're wonderful.

[@danajoyramsey4864]

I love love love your videos!! A lot of these other baking videos are really annoying but I actually want to watch yours the whole thing without skipping through people talking.

how long is the shelf life of this truffle without refrigerator

[@kathleenhartman8015]

Oh my goodness!!!!! Just made these for a friend and i think i ate 4 or 5, delicious!!!! Please will you tell me what to add in for the alcohol if I need them non alcoholic. Would I just add extra 1/4 cup of cream?

These look great, I am gonna make about 6 dozen for our family's Christmas Eve dinner party. I would have never thought to add alcohol but my MIL always gets Bailey's for Christmas Eve because she gets up early and prepares a truly amazing feast so she has to have her magic coffee haha! Im gonna make some of these with Bailey's as a hostess gift for her this year.

[@kb-ih7ni]

Angel Marie that sounds like the perfect christmas omg

[@Angel-nh5jm]

@@kb-ih7ni They were such a hit!! They were soooo easy to make, and everyone was so impressed like they were magic! I made the Bailey's version, I did a version with dark cocoa on them, I did a version with pecans, and a version with freeze dried rasberries. I melted them then sat at the table rolling them out, let them firm up in the freezer, rolled them again to get them extra smooth, then dipped them in the toppings. I got to sit down for most of it, sipping Bailey's and taste testing each truffle. I will never sweat over a variety of pies and baked goods again! I'm my family's truffle queen!

[@7Mushrooms7]

[@michelljoy9357]

[@pecansquirrel3489]

When the truffle mixture is still in its melted form, could you divide it up into silicone molds, refrigerate it, then “roll” it in the coatings to make shaped truffles?

[@xfallenxlostx3254]

That would be difficult because unless the molds are a very simple shape, most of them will break when you take them out. You need tempered chocolate for molds to work really well. Source - I’ve made truffles and other chocolate treats for years. My mom and I used to make TONS of goodies around the holidays to give to neighbors and friends.

[@aashnabakshi1996]

@@xfallenxlostx3254 Omg I had the exact same question! I just bought square shaped silicon moulds and want to make these truffles in them tomorrow. As per the suggestion, maybe I'll dust a little bit of coco powder in the moulds so it comes out easy. Would that work?

[@xfallenxlostx3254]

aashna bakshi The cocoa powder may help a little, but you’d still have a difficult time. The truffles will be very subject to crumbling and cracking. Honestly I suggest just rolling them in the traditional shape or balls like John did, but you could try it since your shape is simple. If you do, just try it with a few at first so you don’t get too frustrated.
