RASPBERRY TRUFFLE CUPS

Steps:

• Melt candy coating as directed on package. Spread 1 teaspoon coating evenly in bottom and up side of each of 24 miniature paper candy cups. Let stand until hardened.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in remaining ingredients except raspberries. Refrigerate about 35 minutes, stirring frequently, until mixture is thickened and mounds when dropped from a spoon.
• Place raspberry in each candy-coated cup. Spoon chocolate mixture into decorating bag with star tip. Pipe mixture into candy-coated cups over raspberry. Place cups on cookie sheet. Refrigerate until chocolate mixture is firm, about 30 minutes. If desired, peel paper from truffle cups before serving. Store tightly covered in refrigerator.

RASPBERRY TRUFFLES

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.

TRUFFLE TARTS WITH RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• Use a fork to mix together the chocolate wafer crumbs and butter. Spray the cups of a 6-muffin tin with a vegetable spray. Line the cups with strips of parchment or waxed paper, cut so that they are as wide as the diameter of each cup and long enough to overhang the sides (you'll need this overhang to remove the tarts). Use the bottom of a small glass to press the crumbs over the bottom and sides of the muffin cups, building the sides up to only about 1 1/2 inches. Place a raspberry in the center of each crust and with a pastry bag or small plastic bag with the corner snipped off, fill the tarts with the truffle mixture. Smooth the tops and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.;
• In a saucepan, bring the cream just to a simmer over low heat. Pour the cream over the chocolate in a bowl and let stand about 10 minutes to melt the chocolate. Add the vanilla and stir until smooth. Set aside to cool for 1 hour at room temperature. Then beat the chocolate at medium speed until it gets thick and light colored. Spread over the bottom of a baking dish and smooth the top. Refrigerate about 2 hours, until firm.
• Pour the cocoa powder onto a deep plate or shallow bowl. Use a melon baller or small ice cream scoop to scoop out balls of chocolate; place them on the plate with the cocoa powder and roll between 2 forks to completely coat with the cocoa powder. Then use the forks to carefully transfer them to a parchment or waxed lined baking sheet.

RASPBERRY TRUFFLE COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Place chocolate almond milk in a small saucepan; heat through. Add vodka and raspberry liqueur; transfer to a mug., Pour vanilla almond milk into a small bowl. With a frother, blend until foamy. Spoon foam into mug. Sprinkle with cocoa if desired.

CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY TRUFFLE CUPS

Steps:

• Melt 2 Tbsp. butter; mix with cookie crumbs. Press onto bottoms of 24 miniature paper-lined muffin cups. Add 1/4 tsp. jam to each. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Microwave white chocolate, 1/4 cup cream and 1 Tbsp. of the remaining butter in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min.; stir until chocolate is melted and mixture is well blended. Spoon over jam. Freeze 10 min.
• Meanwhile, melt semi-sweet chocolate with remaining cream and butter as directed for white chocolate. Spoon over white chocolate layers; top with sprinkles. Refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until firm.
