Could I just put a teaspoon in the milk? Thanks. I was wondering, if I wanted to put a coffee-ish twist on this, could I incorporate instant espresso? Could I just put a teaspoon in the milk?

Usually butter can harden significantly in the refrigerator. Did you make any changes or alterations to the recipe or technique? Hi Katie, I wonder if the butter didn’t get melted the whole way?

I've never frozen them so I can't speak to that. Hi Sarah, You can make these a couple of weeks in advance and keep them chilled. I’ve never frozen them so I can’t speak to that.

I was looking to make some of these truffles for Christmas. How long are they good for once they are made? How far in advance can you make these? Can you freeze them to make the last longer? Any advice would be great! Thanks! By the way, I love your blog! I check it everyday and tell people how much I love the recipes I find on here! =) Hi!

I stumbled upon your blog looking for a good hot chocolate mix recipe. I am also a chocolate lover!! I wanted to ask if you know about fair trade chocolate? My family and I learned about it around 4 years ago and it has changed our chocolate consumption forever. Google slavery in chocolate for an eye-opening education. Thanks! Hi!
