Marge does the trick Douglas

A friend of my parents', once ranked among the best patissiers in Bordeaux, 
used it but never labelled his products as ? pur beurre ? for obvious 
reasons.

The whole process is simple but sequential (rest in fridge, resume, and 
again and again) and consequently time-consuming - just what we need these 
days to keep depression at bay :-)

The most difficult part is to preserve enough chocolate as it is only used 
at the end of the process ;-)
