Mint Chocolate Truffles

Ingredients:

• 220 g of high-quality bittersweet chocolate
• 220 g of high-quality semi-sweet chocolate
• 400 gr. condensed milk
• Peppermint extract (3 or 4 drops)
• 220 g of melting milk chocolate
• Sugar for decoration
• Green food coloring

Preparation:

1. Heat the dark chocolate and condensed milk in a double boiler over medium-low heat until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. The consistency will be similar to jelly. Add mint extract to taste.
2. Remove from heat, then cover and refrigerate the mixture until completely cool, at least 2 hours.
3. Once cooled, form the mixture into teaspoon-sized balls, then drop them into the melted milk chocolate coating, using a fork to allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
4. Color the decorating sugar with a small amount of food coloring and sprinkle over the top of the truffles.
