Truffles sound so fancy. And the bagged ones you buy at the store make you feel both guilty and glorious.
It’s actually really funny how easy they are, considering they are so glorified. It’s 3 steps and two ingredients.
I made white chocolate, but you can use any chocolate you want.
You can adapt these for any occasion. Make dark chocolate and roll in orange sprinkles for Halloween. Make white chocolate and roll in blue for winter. Or pink for a bridal shower. Drizzle white chocolate truffles with melted milk chocolate, or visa versa.
Truffles are a great thing to have in your recipe box.
Here we go!
Creamy White Chocolate Truffles
Ingredients
- 6 oz (1/2 standard size bag) white chocolate chips. People will tell you not to use chocolate chips. I do. It works.
- 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
Instructions
Partially Melt white chocolate chips in microwave (use a big enough, safe bowl), working in 15 seconds intervals and stirring each time. Wait until it’s almost all melted.
Heat cream in small pan over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Pay attention to this; it’s not a lot of liquid so it gets hot fast.
Slowly pour the cream into the chocolate, stirring constantly. Stir until well combined.
Chill mixture for several hours until firm.
Once firm, use a cookie scoop to scoop out the chocolate, and roll each scoop (used that word enough?) into a ball.
I left mine plain, but this is where you could roll in sprinkles or other decorations.
Chill for a little while longer, until well set.
Eat up! Keep these in the fridge, please! They’ll melt!
