Please check out my tips to Mmmmm above on how to firm up the filling - the consistency should be like cookie dough.

(did not taste floury at all). i used fresh strawberries because they were actually cheaper than the frozen ones i found and they worked out just fine. definitely something to keep in mind if you ever have an abundance of fresh strawberries :) thanks for a lovely recipe.

Were your strawberries tasty on their own? I'm wondering if out of season berries contributed?

I'm afraid the taste was flat and floury. I didn't enjoy them. My 15 year old bottomless pit wouldn't eat them. Sorry. I tried these today because you did a lovely job and the pic was great.

I am Meghan Thorne's sister, and I am planning my wedding for next April. I thought these truffles would make excellent favors, but I'm wondering if they need to be refrigerated at all times. Do you think leaving them out on the tables at the reception would be a bad idea? Thanks, Lisa. Hey Kerstin! I am Meghan Thorne’s sister, and I am planning my wedding for next April.

Seeing someone's toothmarks in food isn't appetizing...cut one in half to show the interior. Congrats on the URS experience! They look great, except for the one that was bitten in half.

I actually struggled a bit with that as well. Definitely make sure the strawberry liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup or even a bit less than a 1/2 cup. You can also add in a bit more flour (I'd suggest a tablespoon at a time) to thicken the dough up. Or, you could try putting the truffle centers in the freezer, instead of the fridge, to harden them up before dipping. I hope these tips help - please let me know how they turn out!</strong> Hi Mmmmm – Sorry you had consistency problems. I actually struggled a bit with that as well.
