Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 fresh or canned black truffles, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 ounces each
1 cup dry Champagne
1/4 cup dry sherry
3 ounces fresh or canned mousse de foie gras
1 sheet puff pastry, well chilled
4 (3-inch square) thin slices prosciutto cotto or other delicately flavored ham
1 egg yolk, beaten with 1/4 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Butter a small baking sheet.
  • Scrub truffles with a vegetable brush and put in a small saucepan. Add Champagne and sherry and heat to boiling. Simmer 4 to 6 minutes, until a skewer can be inserted into them. Drain and cool.
  • Mash the foie gras with a fork and divide into quarters. Wrap each truffle in one portion.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 16-inch square. With a sharp knife, cut pastry into 4 (4-inch) squares.
  • Place a slice of ham on each pastry square and top with a prepared truffle. Bring pastry edges up over the truffle and pinch at the top to form a small bundle. Brush with the egg yolk mixture and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until pastry is golden brown, about 15 minutes.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out perfect. The truffles are so rich and decadent, and the puff pastry is always flaky and golden brown.
