Ganache Homemade Chocolates Recipe - Christmas Hamper Special



Making homemade chocolates whether for dinner guests or as a present is a really great way of showing someone you care.
Method:
1. Melt the chocolate slowly in a glass bowl over hot water. Stir and continue to melt. When done drip chocolate into moulds, with a spoon.
2. Only fill half way. Place a piece of waxed paper onto the counter or cookie sheet. Turn moulds over and allow the excess chocolate to drip out onto your waxed paper.
 3. Wipe edges clean so you don't have any chocolate around the outside edges. Freeze 5-10 minutes.
 4. Pour chocolate nto each mould up to the top. Wipe edges again. Refreeze. Take out of freezer and pop homemade chocolates out.
