Chocolate Truffles
(this is my own recipe ...)
Should make about 24
1 cup of heavy cream
4 tablespoon of sweet butter
12 oz of chopped semi-sweet chocolate (or chips)
Kaluha, Raspberry liquor, etc. (optional)
Couverture chocolate, cocoa dust or powdered sugar
1. Put chips and butter in a food processor.
2. Heat cream to just before the boiling point, then pour over the
chocolate-butter mix. Blend in processor until smooth.
3. Add flavoring if desired.
4. Pour into a shallow pan, and freeze for a couple of hours.
5. With a spoon, scoop out frozen chocolate mixture and with
your hands, roll them into truffle balls.
6. Dip them now into molten Couverture chocolate, coat them with
crushed nuts, or roll them in either cocoa powder or powdered sugar.
