OH how I loved Peppermint Truffles when I was in High School! Primary School too, come to think of it. Maybe I was born loving them and their easy accessibility at school canteens simply enabled my obsession admiration. mmmmmm… The sweet creaminess of the chocolate… The freshness of the mint… Well what if this pair went off and got all healthy and came back reinvented as an incredibly simple, healthy and delicious power couple? A power couple that could be ready for the party in a blink of an eye? I’d want them in my limo. For reals. Just ten minutes, ten ingredients, and they’re all yours. Just be warned – they’re devastatingly delicious and ripe for kidnapping! Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
