’Tis the season for festive treats! Elizabeth Chambers’ Bourbon Balls make the perfect addition to any holiday bash.
“My mom made hundreds of them for our annual Christmas parties each year when I was growing up, and I always found them to be beautiful and chic,” the BIRD Bakery founder, 40, exclusively reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly. “Once I was older and made them myself, I couldn’t believe how simple they were.”
Chambers — whose award-winning bakery has storefronts in San Antonio, Dallas and Denver — also likes to gift her confections to her loved ones during the merry season. “They’re wonderful for teachers, friends, coaches,” the Cooking Channel personality told Us. “And they freeze beautifully, so I always have them on hand!”
Chambers’ recipe — which makes up to four dozen sweet spheres — features baked goodies that are filled with bourbon and orange juice. Interested in a stronger bourbon flavor? Chambers advises Us to reduce (or eliminate) the orange juice.
The TV host — who shares daughter Harper, 8, and son Ford, 5, with ex-husband Armie Hammer — opened up BIRD Bakery in 2012, sharing her arsenal of family recipes.
“We celebrated 10 years in March. It has flown by, and also at the same time, it feels like it’s been 100 years,” Chambers gushed to San Antonio Magazine last month of her bake shop, noting Harper and Ford love coming to visit the cafés. “Our San Antonio location is my heart. That’s where we originally opened as an homage to my grandmother and my mom. … San Antonio always feels like home when I’m there. If I could be there every single day, open to close, I would. Few things make me happier.”
