Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams white chocolate
- 60 ml heavy cream
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 50 grams powdered sugar
- 100 grams dessicated coconut or finely crushed nuts
Instructions
Chop the white chocolate finely 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 let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes to melt the chocolate.
Stir the mixture gently until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth.
Add the unsalted butter and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture, and stir until the butter has melted and everything is well combined.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
Once chilled, use a teaspoon to scoop out small amounts of the mixture and roll them into balls with your hands.
Place the powdered sugar in one shallow bowl and the desiccated coconut or crushed nuts in another shallow bowl.
Roll each truffle in the powdered sugar to coat, then roll in the coconut or nuts, if desired, for additional flavor and texture.
Place the finished truffles on a plate or tray and refrigerate for another hour to set firm before serving or storing.
