Tips when preparing chocolate truffles

If you want to step up the quality of your truffles, make use of high-quality dark chocolate. The higher the cocoa percentage the better.

If you want to add some crushed nuts to the truffles, make sure you sprinkle the truffles immediately with nuts after adding the final chocolate layer on the outside. If the chocolate has cooled too much, you will need to reheat it again before adding the final chocolate layer.

Store these delightful bites in an airtight container in the fridge. Remember to remove them from the fridge 10 minutes before you plan to serve them.

Chocolate truffles recipe

15minutesCooking time

20minutesCooling Time

30minutesTotal time

1hour 

5minutes

Ingredients

  • 170 g semisweet baking chocolate or white chocolate baking bars, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or white vanilla baking chips
  • 1 tablespoon shortening
  • finely chopped nuts or candy decorations, if desired

Method

  • Line a cookie sheet with foil. In a 2-litre saucepan, melt the baking chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly; stir in the butter until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat; stir in the whipping cream. Pour the mixture into a small bowl. Refrigerate 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently, just until thick enough to hold a shape.
  • Drop the mixture by rounded measuring teaspoonfuls onto a lined cookie sheet. Return to the refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes or until firm enough to shape. Shape into balls. Freeze uncovered 30 minutes.
  • In a 1-litre saucepan, heat the chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and then remove from the heat. Using two forks, dip and roll chocolate balls, one at a time, into melted chocolate; tap off excess chocolate. Place on the lined cookie sheet. Immediately sprinkle with nuts. If the chocolate has cooled too much, reheat. Repeat with remaining chocolate balls.
  • Refrigerate truffles for about 10 minutes or until chocolate is set. Store in a covered container in a refrigerator. Remove from refrigerator about 10 minutes before serving. Can garnish with coconut to make things easy.
