Instructions

White chocolate eggnog ganache

Break half of the couverture (4.95 oz / 140 g) into small pieces and put them in a mixing bowl.
1 ¾ cups White Chocolate Couverture
Heat the eggnog in a pot (do not boil!) and empty it over the chocolate pieces
⅔ cup Eggnog
Let it sit for two minutes, and then stir the mixture with a whisk until smooth.
Add the glucose and mix until dissolved.
1 tablespoon Glucose
Pour the white chocolate mixture into a squeezing bottle. Let it cool down for 15 minutes (or until it reaches 77 °F // 25 °C) in the fridge.

Filling the chocolate hollows

Fill the hollow spheres with the white chocolate eggnog ganache until just below the rim.

Afterward, put them into the fridge for several hours (about 8 hours).

Sealing the chocolate hollows

Now melt the remaining couverture in a water bath.
Take the cooled hollow spheres out of the fridge and seal them with your chosen sealing tool (squeeze bottle, syringe, or dropper).
Place the sealed chocolates in the refrigerator for 30 minutes until firm.

Coating and decorating the truffles

Use the already melted chocolate from the sealing for the coating.
Prepare a cooling grid or parchment paper to place the chocolates to dry.
Now, one by one, take the chocolates, dip them into the tempered chocolate coating and then carefully lift them out.
Let the excess chocolate drip off briefly and place them carefully on the cooling grid or wax paper.
While the chocolate coating is still soft and moist, you can decorate your eggnog pralines with holiday sprinkles according to your taste.
