Mix and let set for a few hours

Mix the spices and oil into a medium size bowl with a closable lid. Let that sit for a while.
Preheat the oven to 375.
Note: I get better results with small batches in a toaster oven.

Lay out the dough at room temperature and cut into strips 1/2" wide by 4" long.
If you use a rolling pin, try for 1/2" thick before cutting the strips.

Mandatory, use need white flour to dust the cookie sheet or baking tray, your hands and the strips of dough.
If you don't, expect a sticky mess that is totally unmanageable.

The Pillsbury dough works easily (probably from all the chemicals in it) and the pizza dough requires more effort. I'll stretch and pull the dough until it's ready to tie into a knot.

Bake for 10-12 minutes and pull out just as the tops start to brown. You want them soft and not crunchy.

While hot, dump them into the bowl, put the lid on and shake.
They are ready to eat!

Making Truffles

Equipment:

Tempering box
Truffle molds
Small paint brush
Marble slab, or other cool surface for working on
Bowl large enough for the ganache
A good thermometer

Procedure:
First, make the shells. Chop up the bittersweet chocolate into small bits and put them into the tempering box, reserving ¼ teaspoon of chocolate chopped very fine. Set the box to about 115 degrees F. When the chocolate is all melted and about 115 degrees, turn it down to about 95 degrees F. When it gets there, take some of the chocolate and put it on the marble slab and stir it around until it gets thick, then pour it back in. When that is mixed in, pour in the reserved chocolate and stir it in. That will provide seeds for the chocolate crystals to form around. After a few hours, the chocolate is ready for the molds.
Use the small paint brush to paint the chocolate onto the inside of the molds. I use three layers to make sure there aren’t any gaps or holes. Let them cool overnight.
Now you can make the ganache. Chop up the semisweet chocolate and put it in the large bowl. Heat the cream in a small heavy saucepan until it is almost simmering, then pour it over the chocolate and stir it in. It will take a couple of minutes to get it smooth. Add the butter and one teaspoon of vanilla to the chocolate. Let it cool for an hour or so. It should be the consistency of soft margarine.
The easiest way to put the ganache into the molds is to pipe it in, using a pastry bag or two gallon-sized plastic bags set one inside the other, and one corner cut off. Pour the ganache into the bag, and squeeze it into the molds. Fill them to a bit below the top, to allow space for the bottom.
When they are all filled, use the paint brush to paint the bottoms onto the molds, same as doing the shells. Let everything cool overnight. Turn the molds upside down and remove the truffles.
