*Use good-quality chocolate such as Scharffen Berger and Valrhona.
** Nearly any ingredient can be steeped in cream to give the truffles a mysterious dimension of added flavor. A few favorites: 2–3 earl grey or chai tea bags; a few cinnamon sticks or cloves; star anise; a few teaspoons of freshly grated ginger; a dash of cayenne pepper flakes; a few teaspoons of orange zest.
***Use Grand Marnier, Kahlua, Brandy, Whiskey or any kind of liquor that complements your primary flavoring. You may also use 1–2 teaspoons of extracts such as vanilla, peppermint, or orange.
