CHOCOLATE CHAMPAGNE TRUFFLES RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:
- Place the chopped semisweet chocolate in a medium-size bowl. Set aside. Combine the heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Immediately pour the hot cream mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for one minute, then gently whisk until the chocolate is melted. (The mixture will be slightly thick.) Pour the champagne into the chocolate mixture and whisk gently until incorporated. Cover the chocolate mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 to 5 hours, or overnight. Using a small ice cream scoop, spoon the chilled mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate. Place all but a 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips into a heat-safe bowl. Set aside. Bring a few cups of water to a boil in a medium-size sauce pot. Turn off the heat and place the bowl with the chocolate chips on top of the sauce pot. Let it sit for 3 to 5 minutes. Lightly whisk the chocolate chips until fully melted. Remove the bowl from the sauce pot, add the reserved 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and whisk until completely melted. Dip the truffles in the melted chocolate (a dipping fork really comes in handy here) and place them in a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let the truffles sit until the chocolate has completely hardened. If desired, use a small, dry paintbrush to brush edible gold leaves on top of each truffle.

Steps:
- Make 40 truffles according to the recipe for chocolate-port wine truffles, using champagne instead of port. Chill them thoroughly.
- Break the chocolate in pieces and melt in the top of a double boiler or in a microwave oven. Remove the melted chocolate from the heat or the oven and allow it to cool to tepid, 90 to 100 degrees, stirring it from time to time.
- Drop the truffles one at a time into the melted chocolate, then quickly lift them out with a fork or a professional dipping loop, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Arrange on a sheet of waxed paper on a baking sheet and refrigerate at least two hours, until firm and cold.
