Title: Toblerone Truffles
Ingredients:
– 8 oz Toblerone chocolate (milk or dark)
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/4 cup cocoa powder, for rolling
Instructions:
1. Chop the Toblerone chocolate into small, uniform pieces. The smaller the pieces, the faster they will melt.
2. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the heavy cream until just simmering, but not boiling.
3. Remove the cream from the heat and immediately add the chopped Toblerone pieces. Stir gently until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. If there are still solid pieces of chocolate, you can place the saucepan back on low heat for a few seconds while stirring continuously.
4. Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined. The vanilla will enhance the flavor of the truffles.
5. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface of the chocolate to prevent a skin from forming. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
6. Once the chocolate mixture has set, use a teaspoon to scoop out small portions and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place the formed truffles on a plate lined with parchment paper.
7. Pour the cocoa powder into a shallow bowl. Roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until fully coated, tapping off any excess.
8. Repeat this process until all the truffles are coated. You can also customize by rolling some truffles in finely chopped nuts or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
9. Place the finished truffles back in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to set before serving.
10. Serve the Toblerone truffles on a decorative platter or package them in a box with a ribbon for a delightful homemade gift.
