Pecan Pie Truffles Recipe - Food.com image

These festive truffles from Hannah Kaminsky, a columnist at VegNews Magazine, combine the rich flavors of pecan pie under a thin layer of smooth chocolate. Like traditional rum balls, these offer a slightly alcoholic kick, so be sure to monitor any underage guests. Featured in: Well's Vegetarian Thanksgiving 2010.

Total Time 2 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 2 hours 15 minutes

Yield 24 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups pecans, toasted and finely chopped
1 cup graham cracker crumbs (from about 8 whole graham crackers)
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 cup Bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla
7 ounces dark chocolate

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together pecans, graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and salt until well combined. Add maple syrup, bourbon and vanilla, stirring thoroughly. Use your hands to make sure the mixture becomes fully incorporated.
  • Form mixture into walnut-sized balls, then place on a cookie sheet and freeze for 2 hours.
  • In the top of a double boiler or in a medium stainless steel bowl set over a pot of gently simmering water, melt chocolate (we recommend tempering the chocolate, but if you don't, they'll still be delicious, just a bit messy). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip the frozen balls into the melted chocolate, then place onto prepared baking sheet. Let sit for 15 minutes or until firm.

  • Line a 12-cup minimuffin tin with mini baking cups; set aside. Place chocolate in a medium bowl. Bring cream to a boil in a small saucepan and immediately pour over chocolate. Let mixture sit for 1 minute before stirring with a whisk to melt chocolate and form a smooth ganache. Avoid stirring too vigorously (it shouldn't bubble). Fill each muffin cup with 2 teaspoons ganache, and tap the tin gently to allow chocolate to spread. Set remaining ganache aside in a warm place (on top of the stove) until ready to use. Chill tin in freezer until firm, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, bring chopped pecans, corn syrup, sugar, butter, salt, and heavy cream to a boil in a medium pan over medium heat; boil 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in bourbon and vanilla. Let cool slightly before spooning 2 teaspoons of mixture into all muffin cups, followed by 1 teaspoon of remaining ganache. Garnish each with 1 pecan half. Chill in refrigerator until set (about 1 hour), then serve. Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
