The darker the chocolate, the richer the flavor. These brownies are best when made with chocolate that is at least 70 percent cacao, preferably of a high quality. To melt it, the chocolate is combined with butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and then stirred until smooth and combined. After baking, the brownies are dusted with cocoa powder to resemble truffles (hence the recipe name).
