    Great appearance and taste. Has anyone made the cookie crumb bases ahead of time? If so, did you need to refrigerate them? I need to make 60. Thanks

    It is a cholcolate overload. I used more cream to help give the truffle recipe a much smoother taste.

    I made these for Easter and wasn't successful with the first batch of chocolate but tried again and it worked. Overall, the recipe is too sweet although the chocolate is very creamy. I still have some left over from Easter so that should tell you something. :

    I made this for Easter and everyone loved it. I also made half of them with strawberries. I thought that tasted better than the raspberries.

    Truffle mixture was tough to pipe out and it was difficult to make it look pretty but the taste was good. I used strawberries instead of raspberries and chocolate oreos for the crust. Also used with mini muffin trays.

    Decadent and rich. Although the steps are simple enough, getting the cookie mixture in the muffin tins correctly can be tricky.

    I don't think I've ever rated anything from FoodNetwork.com lower than 4-stars, but this recipe was the pits! I consider myself to be a fairly competent cook, but I could not get this recipe to work. The crust was so crumbly, and I couldn't get it to pack together well on the sides, even using a cup to press it. I practically spent the entire hour that the filling was cooling trying to make 6 decent cups! The truffle mixture, although it tastes delicious, was really stiff and would not pipe smoothly at all. I ended up putting the whole thing in a hot oven to allow it to soften up again so I could at least make it fill the cups, because when I piped it into the cups it essentially held it's shape, and wouldn't fill it. I would really appreciate some tips from others who have successfully made this recipe. Did I make some glaring mistake? (I only deviated from the recipe by using chocolate with 60% cocoa instead of 70%, because I couldn't find it anywhere. I suspect these will taste good (although right now I'm feeling a bit queasy from all the extra truffle mixture I snacked on but it was not remotely easy to make them...they're so ugly that I'm not even sure I am going to bring them to the event for which I made them.

    I'm making this right now and the truffle mixture is slightly greasy? Is this normal? How long do I whip it and will this greasiness go away the longer I whip?

    I wish I had read the reviews first. I did not find this easy and when it says you get 15-20 candies it must mean you need to use a mini muffin pan. Definitely not worth the expense and trouble.
