truffles are the most easiest candy to make… it is chocolate and whipping cream melted over a double boiler.. add a tsp of coffee powder , it deepen the chocolate taste
Pour into a 9×13 dish too cool… then put in the fridge
scoop out , when cool..roll into balls then roll in cocoa powder or nuts or icing sugar or what ever
the better the chocolate the better the taste
My last truffle recipe I think came from this web site. (Their Easter candy was awesome.)
Enjoy searching around. ![]()
Suzanne Wilson in Felton is the true cook, I just sampled, but the way she used to make a truffle was to warm up 1/4 of heavy cream on a low fire, then dump 1 cup of chips (choc chips, butterscotch, or white choc) in and stir occasionally. Once mixture is almost melted, remove from the fire, let cool a bit, then roll 1 tsp of the mixture into a ball. Once the ball is nearly cooled, drape melted chocolate over it. Voila!

Scallop and Truffle Mille-Feuille with Meyer Lemon Creme Fraiche and Truffle Vinaigrette Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2005
Show: Emeril Live
Episode: Puffed Pastry
1/2 (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 cups water
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup thinly sliced yellow onions
2 thin slices Meyer lemon
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1 pound sea scallops, foot removed
12 spears very thin asparagus, trimmed, steamed until tender, and chilled
Truffle Vinaigrette, recipe follows
1 fresh black truffle or canned black truffle, approximately 1-inch in diameter, washed and very thinly sliced
Meyer Lemon Creme Fraiche, recipe follows
2 ounces enoki mushrooms, rinsed well, wiped dry, and stems trimmed
Chopped fresh chives, garnish
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a 1/8-inch-thickness, or thin enough to cut out 8 (4-inch) circles. Using a 4-inch round cutter dipped in flour, cut out 8 circles. Place on the prepared sheet, cover with a second piece of parchment paper and place a second baking sheet on top. Bake until cooked through and light golden brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
In a large saucepan, combine the water, wine, sliced onion, Meyer lemon slices, bay leaf, salt, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse. Add the scallops, lower the heat to a simmer, and cover the pan. Gently poach until firm and just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. When cool enough to handle, slice in half crosswise (or into thirds, if very thick). Place the scallop slices on a plate, cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.
Arrange 3 asparagus spears each in the center of 4 plates and drizzle each lightly with truffle vinaigrette. Place one puff pastry round on each asparagus stack and arrange a circle of alternating scallop and truffle slices onto each round. Spoon Truffle Vinaigrette lightly over the scallops and truffles. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, ending with a scallops and truffles on top, topped by a spoonful of the Lemon Creme Fraiche. Spoon the remaining creme fraiche around the edges of the plates and arrange a small bundle of mushrooms on the side of each plate. Garnish each plate with chopped chives and serve.
Truffle Vinaigrette:
1 1/2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white truffle oil, or to taste
Kosher salt
Freshly ground white pepper
In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and shallots and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk in the canola and truffle oils and season lightly with salt and pepper to taste. Use as a dressing.
