INGREDIENTS:
How perfect of a name is "Kentucky Colonel"? You've got a chocolate with bourbon, pecans, and buttercream that if you shape it right... looks like a tiny little helmet circa 1812. Just looking at these little guys makes me want to drop down and crank out 30 push-ups. Also, just about any liquor or extract can be substituted for the bourbon... just in case you're one of those people who likes having choices.


1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter, room temp.
2.5 Cups Powdered Sugar
1 Tbs. Heavy Cream
1/4 Cup Kentucky Bourbon
12 oz. Semisweet Chocolate
1/2 Cup Water
24 Unbroken Pecan Halves


METHOD:
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add in the cream and slowly beat in the sugar until smooth and fully incorporated. Roll into 1" balls 1" apart and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

With your pinky finger, make a small divot on each buttercream ball. With a teaspoon, place several drops of bourbon in the middle of each ball. Pinch the top of each ball to seal the buttercream around the bourbon filling. Place in freezer for 30 minutes.

Bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer. Place a mixing bowl of a similar size on top of the pot (to make a double boiler). Place the chocolate and the water in the top of the double boiler and melt the chocolate. Stir with a whisk until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.

Dip the buttercreams in the chocolate and place back on the cookie sheet. Place a pecan on each of the chocolates. Return to the freezer for one hour or longer until the chocolate is firm.
