    This was delicious, and got many complements about how 'professional' they looked. Though when added the optional flavoring, this thinned out the mix, I added a little more chocolate to thicken it up again, put it in fridge to set, and then they worked out great.

    I did the recipe from Ina's cookbook "Barefoot in Paris" and it varies a bit from the shows recipe. She states in her book to refrigerate the chocolate for an hour, not room temp. It also calls for 3 1/2 oz of each type of chocolate. She also says to let the truffles sit in the fridge over night for best results.
    I am not sure why all the differences - but the cookbook recipe was extremely easy and I had no problems with them setting.

    the chocolate melted very quickly when i used my hands, so instead i balled it with a teaspoon and a tablespoon measuring spoon. this gave the truffles a nice rounded top and a flat bottom to lay them out on. it also didn't set up very well, and yielded about 30 truffles instead of 60.

    I've never been a candy maker but have a friend who adores truffles. I decided to make them for her. I didn't have any Grand Marnier (used it all in margaritas! so left it out.
    The chocolate is gooey even after being refrigerated in the 2nd step. I found that putting a handful of the cocoa powder in my palms and then rolling the candy into balls worked well. Otherwise they melted in my hands. I also forgot to cool the cream for 20 seconds but it still turned out fine. Can't wait to see her to give her this treat from the heart. Thanks Ina for another keeper!

    I made this recipe twice. The first time, the chocolate did not set up. The 2nd time I refrigerated the chocolate before rolling into pieces and they held up better. Family loves them.

    Cindy, I live in the Orlando area and you can get Lindt chocolate at Publix in the candy section or you can use Ghiradelli from the baking section. The Giradelli seemed to hold up a little better for me.
