Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (sugar-free)
- 100 ml Heavy cream
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1 pinch Sea salt (optional, for sprinkling)
- 1 teaspoon Stevia sweetener
Instructions
Chop the sugar-free dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit without stirring for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Gently stir the chocolate and cream mixture with a spatula until smooth and glossy.
Add the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and stevia sweetener to the chocolate mixture, stirring until the butter is completely melted and well incorporated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours until the mixture is firm enough to shape.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a small melon baller or a teaspoon, scoop small portions of the chocolate mixture and quickly roll them between your palms to form balls.
Place the rolled truffles on the prepared baking sheet. If the mixture becomes too soft to handle, refrigerate it for a few more minutes.
Once all truffles are shaped, roll each in cocoa powder to coat evenly.
Optionally sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on top of each truffle for a flavor contrast.
Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until serving. They can be kept refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.
