I am really torn with this Guinness Chocolate Balls post.....
I almost shared this recipe without any photos but I know you all like to see how the recipes look.

Guinness Chocolate Balls
First I have to say these Guinness Chocolate Balls taste amazing! I have made them multiple times over the past few months and each time they turn out fantastic.
BUT they are not very pretty!
There I said it! These Guinness Chocolate Truffle Balls taste great but don't look at pretty as I hoped they would.
I decided to go ahead and share the Guinness recipe even though the photos are not what I hoped they would be. Please forgive me for the random photos and know that these Guinness Chocolate Balls taste a lot better than they photographed!
Ingredients

We had the chance to visit the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin, Ireland, and ever since then, I have been having so much fun baking/cooking with Guinness.
It is such a fun beer to work with.
