Dessert was also hassle. The recipe comes from the Tennessean, 12-23-2020. I have had a package of eatable gold for ages that I wanted to use on truffles. The gold sheets once open are had to control as what we think of as still air, the sheet of gold though was a tornado. You really do not need to let the chocolate set up overnight, just really until it cools down. I had to let mine soften and then rolled into balls. the recipe thank god did not make 128 truffles, but it made a lot. I was able to get 10 with some visible gold on them, the rest I rolled in cocoa. I am going to get small cupcake or candy paper cups and put them in a box for neighbors.
Ingredients:
8 oz., 72% coco chocolate, chopped
3/4 C plus 3 T heavy cream
Cocoa powder for dusting
Directions:
- Warm the cream and melt the chocolate into it. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
- Transfer to a 8 1/2” X 4 1/2 “ pan lined with parchment paper. Smooth the top. Chill until firm but pliable.
- Cut into 1/2” cubes and roll in your hand to make round, then roll in the cocoa. Place on a parchment lined tray.
- Store in an airtight container, refrigerate.
Truffles are easy to make. You can add different flavorings. Not that interested in chocolate.
