RICH CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
I made these one year and gave them as Christmas gifts. They were the most popular presents I ever gave! I can't remember yield and times exactly now so they are a guess with cook time being chill time.

Steps:
- In saucepan, combine whipping cream & butter.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, just until mixture boils; remove from heat. Stir in chocolates until melted; continue stirring until mixture cools & thickens slightly.
- Stir in vanilla.
- Pour into shallow glass dish.
- Cover; chill until firm.
- With spoon scoop mixture into 1 inch balls.
- Coating Melt chocolate & shortening over low heat; stirring constantly.
- (use 1 Tbsp of shortening for every 6 oz. of chocolate).
- When mixture is smooth remove from heat. Dip each truffle into coating.
- (I found dr opping them in the chocolate & then fishing them out with a spoon worked best. But work quickly or they will melt) Then either place them on foil or in foil candy papers & allow to harden.
- Mix powdered sugar & milk.
- Drizzle over truffles in various designs.
