Mexican Hot Chocolate Truffles

LOOK! A recipe that isn’t pumpkin! Are you shocked? You should be shocked. You know how hard this is for me.

I feel like every single recipe for the next two months should be pumpkin…but I know not everyone is as obsessed as I am. Plus, even I can’t resist these Mexican Hot Chocolate Truffles!

I always forget how easy it is to make homemade truffles and then as soon as I make them I remember how impressive and delicious they are.

These truffles are a dark chocolate base spiced with cinnamon and just a little cayenne — just like Mexican Hot Chocolate! These really aren’t hot – they were tame enough that the babies enjoyed them too. However, if you are looking for spicy, you can always up the spice to fit your tastes.
