Recipe Review

Postive aspects - these are easy to make.  They take only a few ingredients and there is no fancy cooking technique.  Another positive is that they look very nice and they do not taste too sweet.
I made these with Ghirardelli dark chocolate (60%), and I didn't scrimp on the other ingredients.  But I think the two tablespoons of balsamic vinegar is just too much.  It gives the entire truffle a sour note that competes with the cherry flavor, and takes away from the intensity of the chocolate.  To my utter surprise, my children won't even eat them, and so I will send them to work with my husband to get rid of them.  Quelle domage!
