1/4 teaspoon almond extract

After the chocolate has chilled, remove from refrigerator. Shape chocolate mixture into 3/4" balls and roll in the ground almonds; place balls on a wax paper lined cookie sheet and put in freezer for 30 minutes.



Place second bag of chocolate chips and tablespoon of shortening in a bowl and place in preheated oven until melted. Check frequently and stir chocolate. Take chocolate balls out of the freezer and the melted chocolate out of the oven. Quickly dip truffles into melted chocolate and place on clean wax paper.
