Muscat Beaumes de Venise Sweet Wine

Beaumes is famed for its wine made from the Muscat grape. Rich, sweet and luscious with a touch of white flower on the finish. A delicious and subtle dessert wine. Buy this wine if you like: Sweet dessert wines that are lighter in style.

Description

Found this recipe in a magazine around Christmas and made it 5 times in 2 weeks for my family, guests, a work do...They disappeared every single time, very gratifying. And so easy!

Method

  1. 1

    Steam the chocolate so that it melts, and bring to the boil the cream, butter and brandy (but don't really let it boil). Take the cream off the stove and stir the chocolate in. It might seem there isn't enough chocolate - just keep stirring. The mixture becomes homogeneous quite soon, and it thickens a bit too. Put the mixture in the fridge for a few hours to let it settle and freeze a bit. Using a teaspoon, spoon out the mixture and roll truffles. It helps if your hands are covered in cocoa powder, the mixture won't stick to you. And of course a cocoa dusting is delicious on the truffles. Enjoy!
