Servings: persons

21 ounces good quality dark chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons Bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
Optional additional needs for decorating
melted dark chocolate
melted light chocolate
toasted crushed hazelnuts
1 small parchment paper, bags for fine decorating
gold luster dust

1
Line a 9X9 baking tray with parchment. Chop chocolate and place in a large glass bowl. On the stove simmer heavy cream, bourbon, vanilla and salt. Just before it boils remove from heat and pour a quarter into the chopped chocolate. Allow to rest 2 minutes and mix a little. Slowly add the remainder of the cream and whisk. (Adding all the cream at once would cause the fat to separate from the chocolate which is not what you want.
2
Mix thoroughly until creamy and pour into your parchment lined dish. Chill at least two hours or overnight before removing.
3
Once set you can remove and cut into your desired shapes. I melted down various chocolates and using a dessert fork with a missing center tine, dipped each bonbon in a bath of chocolate before doing fine decorating using melted chocolate in a parchment bag.
