Recipes!

Here they are!

Souffles
3oz butter (softened)
3oz flour
10oz milk
5 egg yolks
6 egg whites
3oz sugar
6oz semi-sweet chocolate

Mix butter and flour together in a bowl with a wooden spoon. Bring milk to boil; take off heat. Add flour mixture to milk (a little at a time) while wisking. Thicken on stove, then let it cool. Add melted chocolate. Add yolks one-by-one. Whip egg whites with pinch of cream of tartar; gradually add sugar. Whip to soft peak. Fold 1/3 of whites into base, then gently fold in remaining 2/3. Spoon mixture directly into middle of buttered and sugared ramekins. Do not pipe in mixture or smooth the top before baking! Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Truffles
1 part heavy cream
2 parts semi-sweet chocolate

Bring cream to a boil. Put chocolate in a bowl. Pour cream over chocolate, cover with plastic wrap for a couple of minutes. Stir together until all of the chocolate melts. Refrigerate overnight. Scoop into balls and roll in favorite topping (ideas: coconut, cocoa powder, ground pastachios, ground almonds)

CHOCOLATE!!!

Let's just start by saying every calorie consumed at Lisa's house today was worth it. It was the perfect start to Valentine's weekend. We learned how to make truffles and souffles. Feasted on homemade quiche and girl talk. Chocolate.
