Powdered sugar
2 cups pecans
1 cup finely ground vanilla wafer crumbs
1/3 cup Grand Marnier or orange liqueur
Finely grated peel of 1 orange
Powdered sugar
Preparation
Melt chocolate in microwave or in top of a double boiler. Grind pecans in a food processor. Stir into melted chocolate. Add 1 cup crumbs, liqueur and peel. Mix well.
Shape into 1-inch balls. Roll in powdered sugar. Store, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for at least 1 week before serving, so flavors blend.
Truffles will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
