Description
Delicious truffles made with white chocolate, fresh cream, and freeze-dried raspberries, elegantly coated in dark chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 340 g white chocolate chips
- 190 ml double cream (¾ cup)
- 1 ½ cups freeze dried raspberries
- 200 g dark chocolate (60-70% cocoa solids)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Blend the freeze dried raspberries until they turn into a fine powder. Sift the powder through a fine sieve to remove the seeds, you only want smooth raspberry powder.
- Finely chop the white chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl. Melt it gently over simmering water or in the microwave, heating in short bursts and stirring between each one.
- Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it is almost boiling, then remove it from the heat. Pour the hot cream into the melted white chocolate and stir until smooth.
- Add the vanilla, raspberry powder, and a small pinch of salt. Stir gently until the ganache is smooth and bright pink. Let it cool, then refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.
- Take the mixture out of the fridge 30 minutes before rolling. Scoop one tablespoon at a time and roll into balls. Place them on a lined baking sheet and return to the fridge to firm up.
- Melt the dark chocolate gently over simmering water. Using a fork, dip each truffle into the chocolate until fully coated. Place back onto the lined baking sheet and let them set, in the fridge if needed.
- Before the chocolate sets, decorate with extra freeze dried raspberries, chopped pistachios, or cacao nibs if you like.
Notes
- These truffles can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
- For a nutty flavor, consider adding finely chopped pistachios as decoration.
