Rich Chocolate Truffles image

I made these one year and gave them as Christmas gifts. They were the most popular presents I ever gave! I can't remember yield and times exactly now so they are a guess with cook time being chill time.

Time 1h45m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 2/3 cups whipping cream
1/2 cup real butter (no substitute)
8 ounces semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, chopped
1 tablespoon vanilla extract or 1 tablespoon liqueur
12 -18 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or 12 -18 ounces milk chocolate chips
2 -3 tablespoons shortening
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon milk

Steps:

  • In saucepan, combine whipping cream & butter.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, just until mixture boils; remove from heat. Stir in chocolates until melted; continue stirring until mixture cools & thickens slightly.
  • Stir in vanilla.
  • Pour into shallow glass dish.
  • Cover; chill until firm.
  • With spoon scoop mixture into 1 inch balls.
  • Coating Melt chocolate & shortening over low heat; stirring constantly.
  • (use 1 Tbsp of shortening for every 6 oz. of chocolate).
  • When mixture is smooth remove from heat. Dip each truffle into coating.
  • (I found dr opping them in the chocolate & then fishing them out with a spoon worked best. But work quickly or they will melt) Then either place them on foil or in foil candy papers & allow to harden.
  • Mix powdered sugar & milk.
  • Drizzle over truffles in various designs.

I love how versatile these truffles are. You can roll them in cocoa powder, chopped nuts, or even crushed candy canes. They're always a hit, no matter how you serve them.

I'm not usually a fan of truffles, but these were amazing. The chocolate flavor was rich and intense, and the texture was perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.

The ganache filling is so creamy and smooth. It melts in your mouth like butter. The chocolate coating adds a nice crunch and a bit of sweetness.
