 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1 3/4   lb           Milk chocolate, divided
  1       c            Whipping cream
    1/4   c            Kahlua

 1.   Chop finely 1 lb of the chocolate.  Melt in a
 double boiler to 120 degrees.  Measure the cream into
 a 3-quart saucepan and bring just to the boil.  Remove
 from the heat and cool to 120 degrees.  Add the
 chocolate to the cooled cream and stir until the
 mixture is smooth.

 2.   Stir the Kahlua into the chocolate, mixing well.
 scrape onto a baking sheet and refrigerate until firm.

 3.   Finely grate the remaining 3/4 lb of the
 chocolate.  (This is easiest to do using the grater
 blade of a food processor.) Remove the filling from
 refrigeration and form into small rough balls.  Place
 on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.

 4.   Roll the truffles in the grated chocolate,
 pressing gently to adhere.

 5.   Refrigerate overnight.  Remove from refrigeration
 15 minutes before serving.  Note:  these truffles do
 not hold well at room temperature.
