Bourbon Cherry Almond Truffles

1. 1

   Place dried cherries, dates and almonds into a shallow bowl and cover with bourbon. Let soak for about an hour or until the cherries are nice and plumed up the bourbon.

2. 2

   Strain the fruit and nuts from the bourbon (maybe make yourself a cocktail with the left over bourbon) and place into a food processor. Blend until the mixture comes together and comes away from the sides of the blender.

3. 3

   With a spoon or scoop, portion out 6-8 equal-ish sized balls and roll them into compact balls and place on a baking sheet.

4. 4

   Place in the freezer to set.

5. 5

   After about 10 minutes, melt down the chocolate (either in the microwave or a double boiler), grab the chilled balls from the freezer and dip each ball into the melted chocolate. Sprinkle immediately with sea salt.

6. 6

   Place back in freezer or in a cool place until the chocolate sets up.

7. 7

   Eat and be happy. Keep away from the children!
