Chocolate Truffles

Valentines day

Making your own box of handmade Chocolate Truffles is probably the most thoughtful Valentine’s Day present I can think about. It’s personalized, creative, and yet so easy to make. Plus, who doesn’t like chocolates on Valentine’s Day!?!  

Chocolate Truffles
Ingredients for around 20
- 200gr couverture (dark chocolate), grated
- 100ml fresh cream
- ½ vanilla bean cut lengthwise, seeds scraped30gr butter
- 200gr couverture (dark chocolate), melted
--- For Decoration ---
- Shredded coconut,
- Unsweetened cocoa,
- Fairy sprinkles
- All kinds of roasted nuts

PREPARATION
In a saucepan, eat up cream. 
Pour over grated chocolate and whisk quickly. When preparation is smooth place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (overnight is best).
Using a tea spoon, form balls of ganache and roll them between your hands to round up to form the truffles. Let them sit in the fridge for another hour.


Deep truffles in melted chocolate and coat them with your choice of decorations: unsweetened cocoa, coconut, nuts, sprinkles, etc
