Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams white chocolate
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 100 grams dried cranberries
- 20 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams powdered sugar (for coating)
Instructions
Finely chop the white chocolate and place it into a heatproof bowl.
In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the heavy cream to a gentle simmer. Avoid boiling the cream.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the chocolate.
Stir the mixture gently with a spatula until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Add the unsalted butter to the warm chocolate mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
Mix in the vanilla extract and chopped dried cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the chilled mixture and roll it into small balls with your hands.
Roll each truffle in powdered sugar until fully coated.
Place the finished truffles on a plate or tray and refrigerate for another 30 minutes to set.
Serve chilled and enjoy, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
