Well, here are some recipes. I just finished parousing my Mother-in-Law's copy of Food & Wine (12/97). Thought to share some that caught my eye.

Melt the chocolate in a double broiler over moderate heat. Stir in the butter until melted. Off the heat whisk the egg yolks until glossy. Add the cognac and refrigerate until solid.

Using a tsp. scoop small balls of the truffle mixture on a baking sheet of waxed paper. Roll the truffles between hands then roll in almonds.

Refrigerate up to 4 days. By Jacques Pepin Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest V97 #335 by Sara Sutherland <msuther@...> on Dec 28, 1997
