My husband made moaning appreciative sounds as he bit into the truffles. :)
There was more than a little bit of truffle filling leftover. So I used it as the filling in some of my homemade Easter eggs. Yep, that was a winner too.
Thank you. This truffle recipe has now been bumped to 1st place on my list. xx

Then I started reading and felt bonded to you…except that I do, in fact, do it completely wrong–hello microwave. :)

But then again, I’ve never made truffles so beautiful.
