Description
Delicious homemade truffles made with white chocolate and freeze-dried blueberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 9 oz. white chocolate, chopped into very small pieces
- 5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 3 Tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 oz. freeze-dried blueberries, powdered
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, simmer heavy cream. Remove from heat, add softened butter, and stir until butter is completely melted and combined with heavy cream.
- Add powdered dried blueberries and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Over a double boiler, melt chopped white chocolate, stirring casually until smooth and completely melted. DO NOT heat above 105 F (if touched with your finger, it will feel about the same temperature as your body).
- Gently stir in lukewarm blueberry mixture into melted chocolate. It should be approximately the same temperature as melted chocolate when you combine them.
- Cool to room temperature, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm enough to roll the balls (2-3 hours or overnight). While it’s cooling, take it from the fridge and stir with a fork to prevent the fat from separating on top. Cover with plastic wrap and place back into the fridge.
- Scoop out the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Clean your hands with a paper towel after each truffle if the mixture sticks too much, or you can dust your hands with powdered sugar.
- Roll each truffle into powdered sugar to coat them well.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
Notes
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
- Use high-quality white chocolate for the best results.
- For a fun variation, try adding different flavorings or liqueurs to the chocolate mixture.
