Chocolate truffle mix

2 bars of quality but not too fancy dark chocolate (Green & Blacks, Mora Mora)
handful of caster sugar/icing sugar - golden and vanilla'd
1/4 pint of double cream (Longley Farm)
2 handfulls of ground, skin on almonds (put your hands together and fill them!)
1/2 to 1 tsp ground cinnamon
30 - 50 ml bourbon or other sweet booze (brandy, rum, sweet whisky)

Grind your nuts and mix in the cinnamon
Melt chocolate together with sugar in a bowl over a pan of simmering water (bain marie)
Pour the nut mix into the bain marie
Mix it alltogether now and turn the heat off
Fold in the cream
Pour in the booze and fold that in too
Pour the mix out onto a sheet of baking parchment on a marble slab to cool in a big flat piece
When cooled, roll the sheet of stuff into a log - your mix is ready

You can take slices off the end of the log and roll them into balls and roll in cocoa to dust the outsides.

I'm thinking of trying to mix egg yolk with the cream to make a custard and adding this to see how this works. Also an idea of making almond praline and grinding this up to see what happens.
