Everyone loved the first truffles so much, I thought I would try again. I had a lot of extra DBA this term, so I used some up to buy Hershey's special dark chocolate kisses and some semi-sweet chocolate chips. I used the dark chocolate for the middle and the semi-sweet for the coating, and followed the same recipe as before. This time the middle stayed softer, even after refrigeration, and was very, very smooth. I don't know what was different, except for the chocolate, but I preferred these to my first attempt. The middle was slightly more difficult to work with because it was softer, but definitely worth it. Yum!
I also decided to use a different glaze on these. Well, the same powdered-sugar-and-milk glaze, but colored with one drop of blue and one drop of red food coloring. Pretty purple, and yummy truffles.

chocolate is such a temperamental beast. even the most minute factors can throw a batch off kilter. kudos to you for trying it out and having delicious results—smooth no less!
