  5. Grind the 1/2 cup of pecans till they look like this. I use a heaping cup in case I need some extra for firming up the filling mixture.

  6. Drop the filling mixture into the ground pecans. If the mixture is too wet you can add a tablespoon or so of the ground pecans to the filling mixture. But you want it wet enough so the pecans stick to the truffles.
