Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams white chocolate
- 80 ml heavy cream
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 50 ml limoncello
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 50 grams powdered sugar
Instructions
Finely chop the white chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not allow it to boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then gently stir until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Add the unsalted butter, limoncello, and lemon zest to the chocolate mixture. Stir until everything is well combined and you achieve a silky texture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
Once chilled, use a small spoon or a melon baller to scoop out portions of the truffle mixture. Roll each portion into a ball between your palms.
Place the powdered sugar in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle in the powdered sugar until evenly coated.
Transfer the truffles to an airtight container lined with parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Allow the truffles to come to room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for the best texture and flavor.
