Texas Aggie Ring Makes Guinness Chocolate Truffles

Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring doesn’t often make sweets. He doesn’t allow me to consume them all that often either because he’s terrified of me turning into a Fat Ag and having to get him resized.

 

After asking him for several weeks, Aggie Ring consented to allowing me to make something I’ve wanted for some time, “Guinness Chocolate Truffles.” There are only four ingredients. The Muscovado sugar did take a trip to the Whole Foods. I’ve never used it before. It smells and tastes like molasses.

 

Aggie Ring assembled the ingredients and brought the Guinness up to just below the boil. He didn’t want the alcohol to evaporate. Then he added the dark chocolate and proceeded to “Beat the Hell” outta the chocolate while whisking it into the hot Guinness. When the mixture was smooth, Aggie Ring put it into the refrigerator for several hours for it to set.

 

Then, things got a bit “messy” for Aggie Ring. He had to take spoonfuls of that delicious Guinness chocolate and roll them in a bowl of incredibly tasting Droste cocoa from The Netherlands. It was a nasty job but as he said, “I know it’s a tough job but some Aggie Ring has to do this.”

 

When Aggie Ring was finished with the delicious Guinness Chocolate Truffles, he dusted them with the remaining cocoa. I almost couldn’t find him to take the last photograph. Aggie Ring was a real mess. “Look at you!” I cried out. “Covered up to your elbows in Ghirardelli Chocolate, Guinness and cocoa. Even those little pits on your shank are covered in chocolate. What am I ever going to do with you?”

 

Aggie Ring let out an evil laugh and said, “Yes, I know that all Aggie Rings are supposed to say, “We’ve Never Been Licked.” It’s programmed into our firmware at the Aggie Ring factory in Austin, Texas. But seriously, you know you want to lick me.”

 

“I’m not sure.” I replied.

 

The Jersey Shore Aggie Ring gave out another evil laugh and told me, “You know you WANT to lick me and taste just how delicious a Guinness and chocolate covered Aggie Ring tastes. DO IT!”

P.S. The Guinness Chocolate Truffles are fantastic. They have a slight taste of sweet Guinness and melt in your mouth (or on your Aggie Ring).
