Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 200g / 7 ounces ChocZero Sugar-Free Dark Chocolate Chips (1 bag)
- 80 milliliters / ⅓ cup Heavy cream
- 15g / 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Dutch processed cocoa powder
- Finely chopped hazelnuts
- Shredded coconut
Sweetener:
- Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
- Melted ChocZero Sugar-Free Dark Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Carefully melt the ChocZero chocolate chips in a small ceramic bowl, ensuring no moisture contacts the chocolate.
- In a stainless steel saucepan, gently combine 240 milliliters () heavy cream and 57 grams () unsalted butter over medium-low heat.
- Allow the butter to completely dissolve, watching for the first subtle bubbles indicating the cream is approaching a simmer.
- Remove the cream mixture from heat and introduce pure vanilla extract, stirring smoothly to integrate the flavor.
- Pour the hot cream directly over the chocolate chips, letting the mixture rest undisturbed for 4-5 minutes to encourage even melting.
- Whisk the chocolate and cream together until achieving a glossy, uniform ganache with no visible chocolate fragments.
- Transfer the ganache to a rectangular glass container and refrigerate for approximately 120 minutes until it reaches a semi-firm consistency.
- Sanitize your hands under cold water to prevent excessive heat transfer during truffle formation.
- Using a miniature cookie scoop, portion consistent ganache balls onto a chilled parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Swiftly roll each ganache portion between palms to create smooth, uniform spheres.
- Generously coat each truffle in premium cocoa powder, ensuring complete coverage.
- Store truffles in an airtight container within the refrigerator, removing 3-5 minutes before serving to enhance flavor and texture.
Notes
- Keep chocolate quality top-notch for intense, rich flavor that defines your entire dessert experience.
- Chill ganache until perfectly firm yet scoopable, ensuring truffles maintain their elegant round shape without falling apart.
- Speed matters when forming truffles, so rinse hands with icy water to prevent unwanted melting during delicate rolling process.
- Gently coat truffles while mixture remains slightly soft, allowing cocoa powder or crushed nuts to adhere beautifully and naturally.
- Refrigerate completed truffles and strategically remove from cold storage few minutes before serving to achieve that luxurious, silky mouthfeel.
