23 Sep Decadent Crème Fraîche Truffles
Orange and chocolate is a flavor combination for the ages. I love these little treats, because they’re not overly sweet, but absolutely decadent. This is a recipe where you should break out your highest quality chocolate and cocoa powder. It won’t go unnoticed.
