My first attempt at truffles today. I used a bar of Venezuelan 70% dark chocolate, heavy whipping cream, margirine, Hersey's dark cocoa, and confectioner's sugar. I found myself feeling a bit like a child and the joy of a new contaniner of play-doh. I rolled the cool mixture in my hands into little balls, knowing I am supposed to go as fast as I can before the chocolate begins to melt, however, my hands became darkly gooeyingly smeared. It was a blast. And yummy. I find them to be what I expected, soft, bit firm, bit of a small crunch, then moist gooey dark chocolate-ty goodness on the inside.
