WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE AND CHOCOLATE FUDGE LAYER CAKE
I found this in Bon Appetit magazine December 2002. I've made this for the past 2 new years eves and it's a big hit. It's well worth the time that it takes to make it. A thick layer of pure white chocolate truffle separates the amaretto-brushed layers, and a bit more truffle filling is used to flavor the whipped cream icing. For the chocolate stars, you can use 6 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
