Answers:

Chocolate Truffles

9 ounces (9 squares) semi-sweet chocolate
2/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
6 tbsps unsalted butter, softened

Melt chocolate with whipping cream in top of double boiler. Add sugar and whisk until smooth. Cool to room temperature or until thickened, but not hard or lumpy.. Whisk in butter. Pour into an 8 inch square pan and chill until firm. Shape about 1/4 of the truffle mixture at a time, keeping remainder in refrigerator. Scoop into ball with melon baller or spoon. Place in freezer for 5 minutes or until firm. Working quickly as possible, roll between palms to make neat 1 inch balls. Roll in cocoa powder. Continue with remaining truffle mixture. Keep refrigerated.
Makes 42 truffles.
