Truffles
Method
Preparation
- 1
Make the Ganache
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for a minute to melt the chocolate, then stir until smooth.

Add Flavor and Chill
Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt. If using, add the flavored liqueur. Pour the ganache into a shallow dish and refrigerate for about 1-2 hours, or until firm.

Form the Truffles
Once the ganache is firm, use a melon baller or your hands to scoop out small portions and roll them into balls.

Coat the Truffles
Roll the truffles in a mixture of cocoa powder and powdered sugar, or chopped nuts, to coat them. Place them on a plate.
