Chocolate Truffles

Ingredients

• •8 oz dark chocolate, chopped
• •1 cup heavy cream
• •2 tbsp butter
• •1 tsp vanilla extract
• •1/4 tsp salt
• •1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• •2 tbsp powdered sugar

Directions

1. 1Heat heavy cream until steaming, then pour over chopped chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes.
2. 2Stir until smooth, then add butter, vanilla extract, and salt, mixing until fully combined.
3. 3Pour ganache onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes until firm.
4. 4Scoop mixture into 1-inch balls using a melon baller or small spoon.
5. 5Mix cocoa powder and powdered sugar in a shallow bowl.
6. 6Roll each truffle in the cocoa mixture until fully coated.
7. 7Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

💡 Ganache for truffles must cool until scoopable before shaping. If it is still glossy and fluid, more cocoa powder will not fix the texture.
