If you have older children with you at Xmas- this is a brilliant way to get your own back on them for any teenageriness throughout the year.
Your intrepid younger ones will find this utterly hilarious when Grandpa gets the cold chocolate covered sprout
… their job could be capturing a selfie with the unlucky truffle eater.
Here’s how you play
1. Brussels Truffles Roulette
So here’s what you do.
Make (or Buy) some chocolate truffles, a packet of icing and some food colouring.
Buy some Truffle Sized Brussels sprouts.
OK.
So you just cook the sprouts and leave them to go absolutely cold.
Then you turn them into Christmas puddings by
- covering the bottom with brown icing (pud)
- the top with white icing – (brandy butter/cream)
- little icing holly leaves
- little icing berries
Do the same with the truffles – the art is to make one TOTALLY indistinguishable from the other.
This really is an evening well spent, where you will be sniggering as you go at the evil you will be unleashing… (hopefully on the right victim 😉 )
I seem to recall doing this in front of Big Fat Quiz of the Year and several turbo strength mulled wines. What’s not to like?
Anyway, you set your truffles/Brussels random-style on a Lazy Susan for maximum camp effect – a plate (as in the pic) does the job fine.
Do not underestimate the hilarity that will ensue.
We would LOVE to see the pictures
Lots of Love
