Steps:
- TRUFFLES: Combine the chocolate, cream and butter in a small heatproof bowl set over simmering water and let melt. When almost melted, remove from heat and stir the mixture until smooth. Stir in your flavoring of choice and refrigerate until thick enough to mound on a spoon, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
- Line a baking tray with waxed or parchment paper. Scrape the chocolate mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a #3 plain tip. Pipe 8 (1-inch) mounds onto the prepared tray. Place 1 raspberry in the center of each chocolate mound and pipe a little more of the chocolate mixture to enclose completely. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
- CAKE: Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter or coat 8 oversize muffin cups (4-inches wide and 2-inches deep) or 1 1/4-cup custard cups with vegetable spray, Line bottoms with rounds of waxed paper.
- In the top of a double boiler or a small heatproof bowl set over simmering water, melt together the chocolate and butter, cool slightly.
- Meanwhile in the bowl of an electric mixer with a paddle or beaters, beat the eggs, egg yolks and sugar on high speed until tripled in volume, about 5 minutes. Scrape in the chocolate mixture and, on low speed, beat until just combined. Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the flour, using a rubber spatula. Spoon a little of the batter into each of the prepared cups, top with 1 truffle, and cover with the remaining batter. Arrange the cups on a baking tray and bake until the edges of the cakes begin to pull away from the sides of the cups, 12 to 13 minutes.
- Let stand 10 minutes. Invert onto individual dessert plates and carefully peel off the paper. Serve warm. Spoon softly whipped cream or ice cream next to each cake and, if desired, garnish with a few fresh raspberries. Serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE CUPCAKES
Steps:
- Preheat the convection oven to 325 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with 24 cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, add the sugar, vanilla and eggs, and mix until combined. With the mixer on low speed, add the milk and oil, and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and mix together. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and mix on medium speed until the batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Turn off the mixer and add the hot coffee. Mix on low for 2 minutes more.
- Fill the lines three-quarters full with batter and bake for 14 minutes. Once completely cooled, use a paring knife to cut out the center of the cupcake.
- To assemble: Using a small ice cream scoop, fill the cupcakes with 1 scoop of the cooled Chocolate Truffle Ganache. Using a piping bag with a 1M tip, generously frost the cupcakes with Whipped Chocolate Buttercream, making sure to cover the filled area.
- Add the boiling cream to the chips and stir together until chips are completely melted. Add liqueur, mix well and set aside to cool.
- In an electric mixer, beat the butter on high for 2 minutes. Once the butter is whipped, add the powdered sugar 1 cup a time until well blended. Add the vanilla and mix well. Add the cocoa powder and blend on medium speed until well incorporated. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the heavy cream. Once the heavy cream is incorporated, turn the mixer on high and whip for 3 to 4 minutes.
TRUFFLE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES
I love food served with an unexpected twist, like these cupcakes with a creamy chocolate truffle center. My kids love to "help" make them, but I have to be sure to have enough truffles saved to actually fill the cupcakes! -Amanda Noll, Spanaway, Washington

CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE CAKE
Calling all chocoholics! Here's the recipe for what is probably the best chocolate cake in the world (well, it's the best chocolate cake I've ever made)! It is moist, fudgy and of course very very chocolaty. You can make the cake in advance of when you need it and freeze it for up to a month. I made this to serve as a dessert for a dinner party I gave for my Mum's birthday; it was an all round hit. The recipe is from the April 2005 Sainsbury's magazine (Sainsbury's is an English supermarket), where it featured in their Easter Sunday lunch menu. I made a few tweaks and this is how I made it. The original recipe says this serves 8, but it is so rich that I think 10 -12 is more like it, and you still get good sized portions. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C/ gas mark 4 and prepare the cake tin: using a tin measuring 8 inches (20cm)in diameter, 3 inches (7.5cm) deep, lightly oil the cake tin, line the base and sides with baking parchment and oil again, dust the sides with 1 tablespoon each of flour and sugar (this additional flour/sugar is extra to the quantities listed above).
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, sugar and vanilla extract together with an electric whisk for at least 5 minutes - so that it is light and creamy; add the eggs, beating the mix well as you add each egg; beat in the soured cream and milk - it may look curdled, but don't worry this is fine!
- Sieve flours and cocoa together in a separate bowl then sprinkle half over the cake mix; fold in with a metal spoon; sprinkle and fold in the second half.
- Gently spoon the cake mix into the cake tin and make a shallow hollow in the middle with the back of the spoon: bake on the middle shelf for 50 minutes then cover with a double layer of wet baking parchment (to stop the top of the cake overbrowning) and continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes - the cake is baked when it's risen and a fine skewer put in the middle comes out clean: remove from the oven and leave the cake to cool in its tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack, best/flattest side up.
- To make the truffle icing, put the chocolate and butter in a small heatproof bowl and set it over a pan of just simmering water - the bowl must not touch the water: melt the chocolate/butter mix over the water for about 5 minutes then remove the bowl from the pan and leave to cool to 15 minutes: stir in the cream and leave the chocolate mix to cool for about 20-30 minutes so that the icing will be thick enough to coat the cake without the icing running off: pour truffle icing over the cake and spread it over the top and sides.
- To make the almond decoration, first lightly toast the almonds on a baking sheet in the oven at 350°F/180°C/ gas mark 4 for 5 minutes, turning them over half way through; remove and leave to cool: while they are cooling melt the dark chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water until melted, dip the almonds into the chocolate and lay out to dry on baking parchment - about 30 minutes: when dry repeat the process with the white chocolate, but this time arrange the almonds on top of the cake after dipping, the heat of the white chocolate will start to melt the first coat of chocolate on the almonds and you'll get a marbled finish, drizzle any left over melted chocolate over the almonds.
- Leave decoration to cool before serving, then watch the cake 'vanish' before your very eyes!

CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE CAKE
What an insanely good chocolate cake recipe. People will absolutely think you got this from a bakery. The cake is moist and tender, but sturdy enough to hold the frosting and ganache layers. This chocolate frosting is rich and smooth. Where this cake gets special is the chocolate ganache filling. It's rich and chocolaty with a...

Steps:
- 1. FOR CAKE: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 3 9-inch layer cake pans (I use Wilton, they are the best). Cut out circles of wax paper and line bottom of pans. If you have Wilton Bake-Even Cake Strips, use them. If not, you will have to level cakes after they are cooled.
- 2. Combine boiling water and cocoa. Stir until smooth. Set aside in the fridge to cool.
- 3. Cream butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla at high speed of an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 5 min is perfect).
- 4. In a separate bowl combine flour, soda, baking powder, and salt.
- 5. Alternately add flour.
- 6. Then cocoa mixture beginning and ending with flour.
- 7. Do not overbeat or cake will be tough!
- 8. Pour batter into prepared pans.
- 9. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 or until top springs back. Do not overbake!
- 10. Cool in pans 10 minutes.
- 11. Then flip out onto a large plate and put in the freezer. Don't worry, I know what I am doing. This keeps the cakes from falling apart and won't leave crumbs in your icing.
- 12. GANACHE FILLING: Place the chocolate into a medium bowl.
- 13. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil. Watch very carefully because if it boils for a few seconds, it will boil out of the pot.
- 14. When the cream has come to a boil, pour over the chocolate chips.
- 15. Whisk until smooth.
- 16. Stir in the Grand Marnier and the orange zest.
- 17. Transfer hot chocolate to a relatively deep stainless steel bowl and immerse it into a bowl of ice water. Then whip with a hand mixer until it is thick and fluffy.
- 18. Once it is desired consistency, take out of ice bath or it will continue to harden; set aside.
- 19. SATINY CHOCOLATE FROSTING: Combine chips, milk, and butter in a LARGE saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth.
- 20. Remove from heat; blend in powdered sugar.
- 21. Set the pan (or transfer to a mixing bowl) into an ice bath; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer.
- 22. Stop occassionally to scrape down the sides. Mix until frosting is fluffy and holds its shape.
- 23. It should make a peak with a spoon and hold it. Remove from ice bath or it will continue to harden!
- 24. CAKE ASSEMBLY: Remove frozen layers from the freezer and put on a platter lined with wax paper strips to catch the mess. Place the first cake and spoon about half of the ganache.
- 25. Place the next cake on top of the ganache layer.
- 26. Spoon the rest of the ganache on top.
- 27. Place the last cake on top. Frost the top with the satiny chocolate frosting first. Then start on the sides. Smooth top as much as possible with a flat knife dipped in hot water.
- 28. Take your chocolate jimmies (chocolate sprinkles). Gently take your hand and press them into the sides only. Continue until you have gone all he way around. Gently remove the wax paper strips and discard. Put remaining filling into a piping bag and pipe 12 medium size swirls on top of the cake. I used a #21 tip. Space them out before you start piping to make sure you get 12 and they are even. Top each swirl with a Lindt chocolate truffle and a white chocolate truffle, alternating. If the bottom of your cake is messy where you pulled out the paper, you may use the same tip to pipe a border around the base of the cake.
- 29. Chill in the refrigerator immediately. Before serving, let the cake set out at room temperature 30 minutes so the chocolate will soften back up slightly. Enjoy!
- 30. ALTERNATE GARNISH: Pipe a border around top and bottom lip of cake. Take Pirouette creme filled wafers and line them up around the sides of cake. (They do not have to be all the same height). Add M&M's to the middle of the cake . ***Finished Cake #2 in my photo #2 made in (3) 9-inch pans. Serves at least 14, huge cake.
