Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Place the raspberries in a blender or food processor, and process them until they are liquid.
- Pour the raspberry puree into a small saucepan through a strainer or cheesecloth to remove the seeds.
- Add the powdered sugar to the raspberry puree and heat it over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it is thick and syrupy and reduced by about half. Remove the puree from heat and set aside for now.
- Place the chopped chocolate in a large bowl.
- Place the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat, until bubbles start to form around the edges, but do not allow it to come to a full boil.
- Once simmering, pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and allow it to sit for a minute or two to soften and melt the chocolate.
- Whisk the chocolate and cream together gently, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and homogenous. This is the ganache.
- Add the corn syrup and raspberry puree to the chocolate mixture, and whisk it all together.
- Cover the surface with the ganache with cling wrap, and refrigerate until it is thick enough to scoop, at least 2 hours.
- Cover a baking sheet with foil or waxed paper.
- Using a candy scoop or teaspoon, scoop the ganache into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Once all of the ganache is scooped, freeze the balls for 2 hours or until firm.
- Place the candy coating in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in one-minute increments until melted, stirring after every minute to prevent overheating. Stir until the coating is completely smooth. Allow the coating to cool until it is barely warm. Do not let it start setting up, but let it cool down so that it does not melt the truffle fillings.
- Using dipping tools or a fork, dip a truffle into the chocolate. Bring it out of the chocolate and allow the excess to drip back into the bowl.
- Place the dipped truffle back onto the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining truffles and chocolate.
- Place the truffles in the refrigerator to set the candy coating for about 30 minutes. If desired, you can melt red candy coating (or tint white coating with red candy coloring) and drizzle a small amount over the truffles decoratively.

Steps:
- Put 12 ounces of the chocolate in a bowl. Whisk together the cream and corn syrup in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Pour over the chocolate and whisk until thoroughly combined and smooth. Whisk in butter until smooth and glossy. Add the raspberry liqueur and mix well.
- Pour the chocolate into a deep pan and chill. When the chocolate is firm, scoop out small truffle balls, using a melon baller or other small scoop. (Dip scoop in very hot water before each scoop, patting each time onto a towel to avoid getting water into the chocolate mixture.) Chill truffles slightly, and then perfect the circular shape by rolling quickly in palms of your hands. Store the truffles in the refrigerator until ready to finish.
- To finish the truffles: Melt the remaining 8 ounces of chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally. Set the bowl aside and let cool slightly, stirring occasionally, until just cooler than body temperature.
- Put enough cocoa powder in a bowl to form a small pile. Wearing rubber gloves and working with 1 truffle at a time, rub some of the melted chocolate all over the truffles and roll quickly in your hands until smooth. Drop the truffles into the cocoa powder, roll to coat completely, and transfer to a platter. Store in a cool, dry place.
RASPBERRY TRUFFLES
I found this recipe in the food section of the paper. The raspberry and lemon flavors add a tart bite to the sweetness of these truffles. I also inlude instructions on how to temper chocolate to make dipped candies more attractive - the first time I tried tempering, I couldn't believe how much nicer they looked.

Steps:
- Melt 8 ounces of chocolate.
- Heat the butter and cream until the butter is melted and small bubbles form.
- Pour into a small bowl and stir in the chocolate.
- Whisk in the jam and lemon juice.
- cover and refrigerate 60-90 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Spoon the mixture into mounds (about 2 teaspoons each).
- Refrigerate 15 minutes or until firm.
- Use the cornstarch to dust your hands, and roll the mixture into balls.
- Refrigerate overnight.
- Remove centers from the refrigerator to warm to room temperature before the next steps.
- Melt 1 1/2 pounds of chopped chocolate and temper as follows.
- If the chocolate is dull, grainy, or blemished, heat to at least 115 degrees.
- When the chocolate is nearly melted, stir to complete the melt.
- Let the chocolate cool to 100 degrees.
- Look at the chunk of solid chocolate- it should be smooth, dark, and glossy, without dullness or streaking.
- Submerge the 6 ounces of solid chocolate in the melted chocolate and stir until the chocolate cools to 90 degrees.
- What this process does is isomerize the chocolate as it cools, so that the cooled shells will stay glossy and smooth, even in the refrigerator.
- If the solid chunk is dull, streaky, or grained, it will have the opposite effect.
- The taste will be the same, but tempering the chocolate makes the truffles much more attractive.
- When the chocolate has cooled to 90 degrees, remove the chunk and save it for the next time you temper chocolate.
- Smear a thin sample of the melted chocolate on wax paper and refrigerate for 2 minutes.
- The smear should cool glossy and smooth, and should break with a snap.
- Dip each truffle in chocolate; two forks seem to work the best for this (although I'd be interested in hearing anyone else's idea).
- Top the truffles with cocoa or nuts if desired; if you plan to do this, do each truffle as you dip them, because they solidify fairly quickly.
- Refrigerate until set.

Steps:
- If you don't want to add the Turkish delight, move on to step 2. Snip the Turkish delight into pieces with kitchen scissors into a large bowl and add a few tablespoons of water. Microwave on High for 1 min, stirring after 30 secs, or until dissolved and smooth. Tip in the custard and stir together.
- Break the cake into rough chunks and divide between 6 sundae dishes or serving glasses. Mix half of the raspberries with the orange juice in a bowl and crush gently with a fork to break the fruit up slightly. Spoon over the cake layer. Cover with the custard, then leave to cool in the fridge for at least 30 mins. Can be made up to 1 day ahead. To serve, top the trifles with a dollop of crème fraîche, the remaining raspberries and a sprinkling of pistachios.

- If sealed and refrigerated, these truffles will keep for about 1 week.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh raspberries and fragrant rose water.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the raspberries by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they blend well with the other ingredients.
- If the truffle mixture is too soft, add more cocoa powder or powdered sugar. If it's too dry, add more cream or butter.
- Be careful not to overmix the truffle mixture, as this can make it tough.
- Chill the truffle mixture for at least 30 minutes before shaping and coating in chocolate. This will help the truffles to hold their shape.
- If you don't have time to chill the truffle mixture, you can freeze it for 15 minutes. This will make it easier to shape.
