Yield Makes about 3 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 ounces best-quality bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon liqueur, such as triple sec or framboise (optional)
Unsweetened cocoa powder, for rolling

Steps:

  • Put chocolate into a large heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; pour over chocolate in bowl. Stir in liqueur, if desired. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 10 minutes. Stir until smooth. Let stand until thick, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour chocolate mixture into a shallow 8-inch dish or pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until mixture is very cold and set but still pliable, about 30 minutes.
  • Using a teaspoon or a 1/2-inch melon baller, scoop balls of chocolate mixture, transferring them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper as you work. Refrigerate truffles 10 minutes.
  • Using hands dusted with cocoa powder, dip each truffle in cocoa powder to coat, then quickly shape truffle into a rough round.

These truffles are the perfect make-ahead dessert. I can make them a few days in advance and they're still just as delicious.

The white chocolate truffle was a little too sweet for my taste. I prefer the dark chocolate truffle.

I used dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate and they turned out a little too bitter for my taste. Next time I'll use semisweet chocolate as the recipe suggests.
