INSTRUCTIONS
Melt the chocolate, fold in the praline. Now take a nut in a teaspoon and roll in the chocolate until covered. Place on some greaseproof paper to set. Truffles Mix all the ingredients together to make a soft squidgy dough. Roll into a ball, and then roll in the grated white chocolate. You can also roll in nuts, cocoa or coat in melted chocolate and leave to set on greaseproof paper. Keep all the chocolates in the fridge until needed for the crackers. As there is no cream in the chocolates they should keep for about 1 week quite well. Crackers Wrap two of your chocolates in some cellophane and tie with a little ribbon. Take your handmade paper and measure it three times the length of the tube and just wide enough to wrap around it with a small overlap. Now cut another piece in a different colour paper or even some material with pinking shears if you have them. Wrap both pieces around the tube and hold together with an elastic band. If you are using one, this is when you put in the cracker. Now with the thread, tie one end gently to give the start of the cracker shape. Pop in the chocolates and then do the same with the other end. Tie some ivy around the middle of the cracker with a cinnamon stick and vanilla pod. Converted by MC_Buster.
