QUICK, RICH TRUFFLES
Surely you've done something wonderful lately, something that
deserves
an extra-special reward. Then mix up a quick batch of these
chocolate
confections, sit back, and congratulate yourself. Note that if
you
like you can add 3 tablespoons of rum or another liqueur or
flavoring
to the truffle mixture after the chocolates, cream, and butter
have
melted. The truffles will keep up to 2 weeks in the
refrigerator.
