DIRECTIONS:
Melt 4.5 ounces of the semi-sweet chocolate in a double
boiler until just fluid. Using a whisk, incorporate
softened butter, then egg yolk, sifted sugar and
cream into the melted chocolate. Whisk until smooth.
Pour chocolate mixture in heart molds or any other
molds (an egg poacher works well as a mold), and refrigerate
until set, about 3 hours.
Melt remaining 4 ounces of chocolate in a double boiler
until just fluid.
Unmold chocolate truffles and dip them in the melted
chocolate, shake off excess chocolate and leave to
set on parchment paper. Trim excess chocolate. In a
small bowl, combine liqueur and gold dust to achieve
a paint-like consistency. Using brushes, decorate hearts
with gold "paint" A simple "I love You" is
quite effective, or better still use an original romantic
quote. If you are very artistic, birds, or a floral
motif along the edges complete the effect.
