Ohh I love making truffles! I've always dipped mine in melted chocolate which is a big hassle so I may skip that this year...
My favorite trick is to make a big double broiler batch of the ganache and then split it into smaller bowls with individual flavors. I do chopped up marachino cherries topped with drizzle of cherry flavored white chocolate; peppermint oil rolled in crushed candy canes; nutella mixed with ganache rolled in chopped hazelnuts and toasted filled rolled in more coconut.
