Melt chocolate. Combine sugar and butter in bowl. Cream together. Add
egg yolks, 1 at a time. Stir in melted chocolate and flavouring. Chill
mixture. Break off pieces and form into balls. Roll in coating. Air-dry 1
hour. Store in air-tight container in very cool place. Makes about fifty
truffles.
Suggested coatings: ground almonds or other nuts, cocoa, more melted
chocolate, confectioners' sugar, coconut, chocolate or coloured jimmies.
Note that this uses raw egg yolks. I find a melon baller to be very handy
in forming the truffles.
