Food Friday: His & Hers Christmas Truffles

Ben Jackson meets Penny Smith who shares her Christmas Truffles

For our Food Friday recipe we've come up with something that you can make ahead for Christmas, the only problem is that I doubt you'll be able to wait that long to eat the lot. Today it's the turn of Penny Smith to make something delicious for us in her kitchen in Countesthorpe...

His & Hers Christmas Truffles

These truffles are a terrific Christmas standby as once you鈥檝e made the basic truffle you can pop them on a tray in the freezer and when they鈥檙e frozen solid, you can put them in a freezer bag. Then when you want them just leave them to defrost for a couple of hours in the fridge and coat just before serving!
