    Janine, if I made these I would be saying “somebody get them out of my house! Quick!” I would eat them ALLLLL! They look so delicious and pretty for a holiday gathering, too —- if you can keep them from disappearing first LOL!
    Pinning this one a lot!

    My word! This looks like the BEST THING EVER. My ex used to love those chocolate orange things and this reminds me of that, but better.

    I’ve always wanted to make truffles. They look so easy to whip up and they are oh so delicious. I have a serious sweet tooth. Dinner isn’t complete unless there is something sweet at the end of the meal. I don’t think I’ve had fruity truffles, I know I will love them. Thanks for the recipe Janine, and Happy Holidays!
