Truffles, No Green Tea.

  My finished truffles. They are supposedly green tea truffles, but there isn't a hint of green tea to them. All I get is chocolate when I eat them. Much ramp up the green tea flavor next time.

  Also, will NEVER use straight cocoa powder on the outside ever again. The bitter shock of it totally ruins the nom that follows. 

  Did enjoy the not-so-green-tea-y truffle with my tea yesterday morning, however.

Whoopie Pies

   Just before Thanksgiving I got my first official order. Granted it was from a friend, but still. She wanted Whoopie Pies for her Thanksgiving. I got so excited to get everything ready, I forgot to take pictures of the process and of the final product. All I had left to photograph where the few that were too ugly to mail! So, here are the ugly ones. You'll just have to imagine how pretty the others were. 

   I remembered the photographs after I'd already packaged the pies, so here you see how nice and neat I packed everything. :)
