Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chocolate Ganache

    Chop dark and milk chocolate and place in a bowl. In a saucepan, heat heavy cream until it just starts to simmer, then pour over the chocolate. Let it sit for a few minutes, then stir until smooth.

  2. 2

    Flavor the Ganache

    Add vanilla extract and powdered sugar to the chocolate ganache mixture. Stir until fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.

  4. 4

    Form the Truffles

    Once the ganache is set, use a small scoop or your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).

  5. 5

    Coat with Cocoa Powder

    Roll each truffle in unsweetened cocoa powder to coat evenly.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Place truffles on a serving plate and top with chocolate shavings. Serve immediately or keep refrigerated until serving.
