         Title: Boris Truffle   
    Categories: Five, Chocolate, Breads, Snacks, Beer   
         Yield: 3 Servings   
       
        12 oz Boris the Spider beer   
         8 oz Semi sweet chocolate   
       1/2 c  Softened, unsalted butter   
       3/4 c  Finely pulverized pretzel   
              - rods   
       3/4 c  Crushed pretzels; for   
              - rolling   
       
     Place 1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp Boris the Spider in a 2 cup   
     saucepan. Set aside. Pour the remaining beer into a   
     separate small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook   
     until reduced to 1 tbsp, about 15 to 20 min. Be sure to   
     keep an eye on this because once reduced considerably,   
     it can burn easily.   
        
     Chop the chocolate into pieces and place in the saucepan   
     with the beer. Place the saucepan over medium to low   
     heat and let stand until the chocolate starts to melt.   
     Stir with the wire whisk to blend together the chocolate   
     pieces, but don’t whisk too vigorously (you don’t want   
     air). When the chocolate is melted and smooth, begin to   
     add 1 tbsp of butter at a time. Whisk gently until the   
     butter is melted, and then add 1 tbsp of your Boris the   
     Spider reduction. Stir in the pulverized pretzels.   
        
     Pour the chocolate mixture into a bowl and chill in the   
     refrigerator until firm or overnight. Line a cookie   
     sheet with wax paper. Scoop out ganache by the heaping   
     tablespoon and quickly roll between your palms. Once all   
     the chocolate is used up, chill truffles in an airtight   
     container in the fridge until ready to roll in the   
     crushed pretzels. These will keep for 7 days in the   
     fridge.   
        
     Roll truffles in crushed pretzels just before serving.
