CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     dessert

Time 1h53m

Yield 60 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound good bittersweet chocolate such as Lindt
1/2 pound good semisweet chocolate such as Ghiradelli
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier, optional
1 tablespoon prepared coffee
1/2 teaspoon good vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar
Cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Chop the chocolates finely with a sharp knife. Place them in a heat-proof mixing bowl.
  • Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it just boils. Turn off the heat and allow the cream to sit for 20 seconds. Pour the cream through a fine-meshed sieve into the bowl with chocolate. With a wire whisk, slowly stir the cream and chocolates together until the chocolate is completely melted. Whisk in the Grand Marnier, if using, coffee, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • With 2 teaspoons, spoon round balls of the chocolate mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, until firm. Roll each dollop of chocolate in your hands to roughly make a round ball. Roll in confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, or both. These will keep refrigerated for weeks, but serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • For the richest flavor, use high-quality chocolate. A good rule of thumb is to look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • To make the hot chocolate even more decadent, add a tablespoon of heavy cream or milk before serving.
  • Garnish the hot chocolate with whipped cream, grated chocolate, or a sprinkling of cocoa powder.
  • For a unique flavor twist, try adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract, almond extract, or cinnamon to the hot chocolate.
  • If you don't have truffle oil, you can make your own by infusing olive oil with truffles. Simply add a few slices of truffle to a bottle of olive oil and let it sit for a week or two.

Conclusion:

This truffle hot chocolate is the perfect drink to warm you up on a cold day. It's rich, decadent, and full of chocolate flavor. Plus, it's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're craving something sweet and chocolatey, give this recipe a try.
