I love things that are impressive to give, fun to make and beyond tasty to eat. These Bailey’s Original Irish Cream Truffles fit the ticket for all three categories and let’s face it: Truffles? Who doesn’t get that warm fuzzy feeling from just hearing that word? My mouth is Pavlov trained to start watering.
