Christmas truffles with a little bit of rum, anyone? These make a great addition for the ‘adult’ cookie plate :christmas_tree: The recipe is very easy and there’s no baking involved.

You can choose whatever decor you like! My favorite are the chocolate sprinkles, but even in my family everyone has their own favorite! The mix makes them look especially pretty on the plate and you can impress your loved ones :santa:
