Truffle Ingredients

Method

Truffle Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ganache

    Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it 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 chopped chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Stir the chocolate and cream mixture until smooth and fully combined. Add the truffle oil, sea salt, and vanilla extract, and mix until well incorporated.

  3. 3

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to scoop.

  4. 4

    Shape the Truffles

    Once the mixture is firm, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form small balls. Roll each ball in the cocoa powder to coat.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Place the truffles on a serving plate and enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
