White chocolate truffles
It is not too hard to make delicious Chocolate Truffles at home. These silky-smooth white chocolate truffles are a great all-purpose recipe to have in your repertoire. They can be dipped in dark or white chocolate or rolled in powdered sugar or cocoa powder.
Ingredients
- 100 g white chocolate
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter diced
- 2 tbsp cream
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- pinch salt
Coating
- 100 g white chocolate
- 100 g dark chocolate
Instructions
- Place the white chocolate, cream, butter, vanilla and salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals until melted, 1–2 minutes. It’s a good idea to stop heating it before all the chocolate is melted, and simply stir until the residual heat melts all the chocolate.
- Place clingwrap over the top of the white chocolate and refrigerate until firm enough to scoop, about 2 hours.
- Use a teaspoon to scoop to form small balls. Place them on a baking paper and refrigerate while you prepare the coating chocolates.
- Place the white chocolate for coating in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.
- Use dipping tools or a fork to dip a white chocolate truffle into the white coating. Hold it over the bowl so the excess coating can drip down back into the bowl, then place it back on the baking sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining truffles.
- Repeat the dark chocolate.
- Refrigerate until the coating is set. For the best taste and texture, serve these truffles at room temperature.
Notes
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
If you want to decorate the truffles with anything, such as sprinkles, nuts, or coconut, do it right away, before the coating chocolate sets.
