Caroline ALSO Explores: DUMBO (and makes chocolate truffles!)

    The second part to my full on Brooklyn experience, was meeting up with my friend Charlotte in DUMBO. It was a beautiful day so we got food and walked a lot. I really loved exploring this area, because it's different than the other areas of Brooklyn I've been in. We decided to make chocolate truffle's, with this recipe Charlotte found on Pinterest. Before we started, we made a stop at the supermarket in which I ran to in size 9 flats (I'm a 6). Not easy, but very funny. Anyway, we first put all of the ingredients except for the cocoa powder and the chocolate chips in a skillet and mixed it up until it was close to boiling. Then when it was down, we put it over chocolate chips and mixed. (IT TASTED SO GOOD). We poured it in a small pan (covered in wax paper so it wouldn't stick)

Waiting about 15 minutes in the freezer, (apposed to a half hour in the refrigerator), we rolled! (It was so messy).

And viola! Our last step was rolling in cocoa powder, and we were done! They were good, but I think we used a tad bit too much expresso powder.

Thank you to Charlotte for showing me around DUMBO  on this gorgeous day! I took so many photos, but here are my favorites:
