    List of Ingredients




    TRUFFLE DESSERT:
    1 c. whipping cream
    3/4 c. powdered sugar
    1/4 c. butter
    3 T. orange juice
    2 (8 oz.) bars semi-sweet baking chocolate
    1 c. coarsely chopped hazelnuts, toasted
    4 egg yolks

    CUSTARD:
    1 c. whipping cream
    3 egg yolks
    1/4 c. sugar
    1 t. vanilla
    1 t. cornstarch

    GARNISH:
    Finely chopped hazelnuts

    In saucepan combine 1 cup whipping cream, butter and chocolate. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted, 5 to 7 minutes. With wire whisk stir in 4 egg yolks, one at a time. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches 160º and thickens slightly, 3 to 4 minutes.

    Remove from heat; whisk in powdered sugar and orange juice. Stir in hazelnuts. Line 8x4-inch loaf pan with foil leaving 1-inch of foil over each edge. Pour chocolate mixture into prepared pan. Freeze 8 hours or overnight.

    In saucepan cook 1 cup whipping cream over medium heat until it just comes to a boil, 4 to 6 minutes. Do not boil because egg yolks will curdle. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Remove truffle dessert from pan by lifting out using foil. Remove foil. Slice truffle dessert with hot knife into 16 slices. Spoon about 1 tablespoon custard onto individual dessert plates; place slice of truffle dessert over custard. Garnish with finely chopped hazelnuts.
