The Best Truffles Ever
I know that the idea of making “fancy” desserts – like truffles – can seem intimidating to some. Its much easier than it seems. I could not stop eating these. Its the best recipe I ever made.
Ingredients:5 ounces White Chocolate chips1/4 cup Mascarpone Cheese2 tbs Kahlua1 tsp Espresso Powder1/2 vanilla bean paste (optional) Pinch of salt Truffle coating: Dark Chocolate grated1/4 teaspoon Cocoa PowderIt makes 10 -15 truffles.
Over medium heat, melt white chocolate in double boiler. Once melted, set aside to cool until warm.In a small cup, dissolve 1/2 tsp of espresso in the Kahlua. Set aside.Add remaining 1/2 tsp. of espresso, mix to combine.To the chocolate, whisk in the mascarpone.Pour espresso and Kahlua mixture, vanilla and pinch of salt to combine.Pour in to small container and refrigerate.
The following day, on a flat surface grate dark chocolate block and toss shavings with cocoa powder. Remove ganache from refrigerator, and scoop balls with a round spoon. One at a time roll into a ball using your hands, then roll the truffle in the shaved chocolate/cocoa until covered. Keep refrigerated. Enjoy this deliciousness!!!
