~ Marbled Truffles ~
6 oz white chocolate, coarsely chop
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 t vanilla
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 T butter or margarine
2 T orange-flavored liqueur
3/4 cup confectioners sugar, sifted
Melt white chocolate with 1/4 cup of the whipping
cream and the vanilla in heavy, medium saucepan
oven low heat, stirring constantly. Pour into
9-inch square pan. Refrigerate. Melt semisweet
chocolate chips with butter and remaining 1/4 cup
whipping cream in heavy, medium saucepan over low
heat, stirring constantly. Whisk in liqueur. Pour
chocolate mixture over refrigerated white chocolate
mixture. Refrigerate until mixture is fudgy, but
soft, about 1 hour. Shape about 1 tablespoonful of
the mixture into 1 1/4 inch ball. To shape, roll
mixture in your palms. Place balls on waxed paper.
Sift confectioners sugar into shallow bowl. Roll
balls in powdered sugar (if coating mixture won't
stick because truffle has set, roll between your
palms until outside is soft.) Truffles can be
refrigerated 2-3 days or frozen several weeks.
Makes 30 truffles
