Heavenly Dark Chocolate Truffles Recipe

These dark chocolate truffles are luxuriously smooth and decadent, with a deep chocolate flavor. Perfect for gifting, parties, or indulging in a sweet treat!

Ingredients (Makes about 20 truffles):

  • 200g (7 oz) dark chocolate (70% cocoa), finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or a splash of liqueur (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Coating Options:

  • Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • Finely chopped nuts (e.g., hazelnuts, pistachios, or almonds)
  • Shredded coconut
  • Powdered sugar
  • Melted dark or white chocolate (for drizzling or dipping)

Instructions:

  1. Melt Chocolate with Cream:

    • Place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Stir gently until smooth and glossy.

  2. Add Flavorings:

    • Stir in the butter (if using), vanilla extract, or your preferred liqueur. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the chocolate flavor.

  3. Chill the Ganache:

    • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until the ganache is firm enough to shape.

  4. Shape the Truffles:

    • Use a small cookie scoop or teaspoon to portion the ganache. Roll each portion into a ball between your palms. Work quickly to prevent the ganache from melting.

  5. Coat the Truffles:

    • Roll the truffles in your chosen coating (e.g., cocoa powder, nuts, or coconut). For a polished finish, dip them in melted chocolate and let them set on parchment paper.

  6. Serve or Store:

    • Place the truffles in mini cupcake liners or an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Let them sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Tips and Variations:

  • Add Spices: Mix a pinch of cinnamon, cayenne, or cardamom into the ganache for a unique twist.
  • Use Milk or White Chocolate: Substitute dark chocolate for milk or white chocolate but reduce the cream slightly to maintain a firm texture.
  • Double Chocolate Coating: Drizzle melted white chocolate over cocoa-dusted truffles for a striking contrast.
  • Gifting Tip: Package the truffles in decorative boxes or jars with a ribbon for a perfect homemade gift.
