Don't panic - it's a special recipe for Christmas Truffles. This is a HUGE recipe... I really should cut it down to a more manageable 'size', but I shop at Sam's.
3.5 lbs Ghirardelli Bitter Sweet Chocolate chips
6 sticks Land o' Lakes unsalted butter
1 3/4 cups of Whipping Cream
2 cans (14 oz each) Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
2 lbs Confectioner's sugar
1 bag Oreo cookies (crushed)
You'll need a very big double boiler for this... or do what I do, take a big iron skillet and put about 1 1/2 inches of water in the bottom. Set a big heavy pot into the water and slowly bring up the heat to about medium, don't let it boil.
Melt all the chocolate chips in the above mentioned pot. Add butter, whipping cream and condensed milk and beat until smooth. Then add the powdered sugar slowly, beating as you go to keep the texture smooth and consistent. Pour mixture into a 9 X 13 cake pan and allow to stand over night. (the pan will be very full!)
Form small balls of the mixture with a small melon baller or just scoop it up with a spoon and roll in your hands. (This part gets really messy!) Drop balls into crushed Oreo Cookie crumbs and roll to cover. Makes one hell of a lot! Give everyone you know a 1/2 dozen Orgasms for Christmas and you'll be the most popular person in town.
