Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 11 ounces white chocolate chips
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons dried raspberry powder
Coating and Decoration
- 8 ounces dark chocolate chips
- Additional dried raspberry powder for garnish
Instructions
- Melt White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy cream. Heat in 15-second increments, stirring well between each interval until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
- Mix Raspberry Powder: Stir the raspberry powder into the melted white chocolate mixture until evenly incorporated, giving the filling a vibrant color and fruity flavor.
- Chill Filling: Refrigerate the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes until it is firm enough to roll but not completely hardened.
- Form Balls: Using a small cookie scoop, portion the chilled filling and roll each scoop into a smooth, round ball with clean hands.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Place the truffle balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart slightly for easier handling.
- Melt Dark Chocolate: In a separate medium bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 15-second microwave increments, stirring between each until fully melted and glossy.
- Dip Truffles: Individually dip each truffle ball into the melted dark chocolate using a fork. Roll to coat completely and allow excess chocolate to drip off. Scrape the bottom of the fork on the bowl’s edge to remove extra chocolate before placing the truffle back on the parchment.
- Set Coating: Refrigerate the coated truffles for about 10 minutes, or until the dark chocolate layer has fully set.
- Decorate: Transfer any remaining dark chocolate into a piping bag or Ziplock bag with a small corner snipped off. Drizzle the chocolate over the set truffles for an elegant finish, then sprinkle additional raspberry powder on top.
- Final Chill: Place the decorated truffles back in the refrigerator for up to 10 minutes to allow the drizzle and garnish to set completely before serving.
Notes
- Use good quality chocolate chips for the best flavor and texture.
- Raspberry powder adds natural color and flavor without adding moisture; ensure it’s fully dried.
- If you do not have a piping bag, a Ziplock bag with a small cut corner works great for drizzling chocolate.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Bring truffles to room temperature before serving to enhance the flavors.
