A Favorite Christmas Tradition: Lindt Chocolate Truffles

For about the last five years now, my mother-in-law has been getting me a package of Lindt Lindor Truffles, and it has become one of my most eagerly anticipated gifts. Since its become an annual indulgence, I've had the opportunity to sample just about every type of their truffles - Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate, Mint, you name it.

This year became my favorite flavor of all, because I received the Extra Dark Chocolate Truffles. These bad boys have 60% Cocoa, and like all of their truffles, the outer chocolate enrobes a super smooth, super rich filling. And since they're dark chocolate, they are decadent without being overly sweet.
