Ingredients:
- 8 ounces high-quality semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cocoa powder or confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Instructions:
- Place the chopped chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat immediately.
- Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
- Using a whisk, gently stir the mixture until smooth and well combined.
- Add the softened butter and vanilla extract, and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Cover the truffle mixture with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
- Using a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out portions of the chilled truffle mixture and quickly roll them into smooth balls between your palms.
- Roll the truffles in cocoa powder or confectioners’ sugar to coat them evenly.
- Arrange the truffles on a serving platter and let them come to room temperature before serving.
