Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: -
Total Time: 20 mins
Cuisine: Dessert
Serves: 12 truffles
Ingredients
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- Coconut flakes for coating
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper and setting aside.
- In a medium saucepan, gently heat heavy cream over low heat until it starts to simmer, being careful not to boil.
- Remove cream from heat and add white chocolate chips, stirring continuously until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth.
- Carefully fold in fresh raspberries, gently crushing them slightly to release their flavor and color into the chocolate mixture.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for approximately 1-2 hours, or until the mixture becomes firm enough to handle and shape.
- Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop or spoon to portion out equal-sized truffle balls, rolling them between your palms to create smooth, round shapes.
- Roll each truffle in coconut flakes, ensuring they are evenly coated and have a light, delicate exterior.
- Place truffles on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet and return to refrigerator to set for an additional 30 minutes.
- Before serving, let truffles sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly and enhance their flavor.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Quality Ingredients: Use high-quality white chocolate chips for the best flavor. Look for brands with minimal additives for a richer taste.
- Chill Time: Be patient! Allowing the mixture to chill thoroughly is crucial for shaping the truffles. If it’s too soft, they’ll lose their shape.
- Raspberry Folding: When folding in the raspberries, be gentle to maintain some whole pieces for bursts of flavor in each bite.
- Coconut Coating: For an extra touch, toast the coconut flakes lightly in a pan before rolling the truffles for added flavor and crunch.
- Serving Tip: Let the truffles sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. This enhances the creamy texture and flavor, making them even more irresistible.
- Storage: Keep your truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can last up to 5 days, but trust us, they won’t last that long!
