 Love Baking (New York) says:
These were delicious!! One thing I noticed is that in the recipe, the mixing in of the flour and baking powder was omitted. I just added it in after the other ingredients were mixed together. I didn't have enough chocolate so I only used half as much chocolate chips in the truffle mixture and it tasted fine. I also didn't have enough for the top chocolate so I just drizzled some semi-sweet baking chocolate over the top and that was fine, too. I kept mine refrigerated and it made them seem really fudgy. I'm planning on making them again very soon!!

I love these and have been making them for years! I cut in squares after the truffle sets up in the fridge, then place 3 fresh raspberries on top and then drizzle with chocolate!
