Ingredients

  • 113 gm cooking chocolate semi sweet or bitter sweet
  • 1/4 cup+ 2 tablespoon heavy cream / whipping cream
  • coco powder as needed for rolling
  • icing sugar optional as needed for dusting

Instructions

  • Chop the chocolate roughly and place it in a food processor / blender and powder it coarsely.
  • Heat cream in a pan in medium flame with frequent stirring.
  • Do not let it boil, just when it is about to boil, pour it to the powdered chocolate and keep closed for 4-5 minutes.
  • Blend it again for 10 seconds and then again blend after wiping down the sides. Just blend for another 10 seconds. Make sure no chocolate bits are there.
  • Now this is called ganache and pour this to a flat and shallow container.
  • Cover it closely with a cling wrap and refrigerate for 2 –3 hours.
  • Scoop 1 tablespoon of the set ganache and place it in butter paper. Roll each into balls with generous coco powder.
  • Arrange it neatly in paper liners and keep refrigerated.
  • Enjoy the creamy soft homemade chocolate truffles! It just melts in your mouth!

Notes

  • Use icing sugar for rolling in place of coco powder, if you want it sweet.
  • You can use nuts, or any flavours in chocolate for variety of truffles.
  • If your cream is heated too much then if you add it to the chocolate, it will turn oily. If that happens, just add more cream and blend again. Just make sure the cream is not hot.
  • Before rolling the ganache in coco powder, it will be sticky. I used gloves while rolling.
