Ingredients

• 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
• 100 grams Milk chocolate
• 50 grams Unsalted butter
• 120 milliliters Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 50 grams White chocolate (for drizzling)
• 50 grams Cocoa powder
• 1 pinch Sea salt (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the dark and milk chocolates and place them into a heatproof bowl.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.

Step 3

Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.

Step 4

Using a spatula or whisk, gently stir the mixture in small circles starting from the center, until the chocolate and cream combine into a smooth ganache.

Step 5

Add the unsalted butter and vanilla extract to the ganache, stirring gently until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the ganache is firm enough to shape.

Step 7

Using a small spoon or melon baller, scoop out portions of the ganache and roll them into balls with your hands. If the ganache softens too much, refrigerate it again briefly.

Step 8

Roll each truffle in cocoa powder to coat completely.

Step 9

Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth.

Step 10

Using a fork or a piping bag, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the truffles for decoration. Optionally, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt over each truffle for a burst of flavor.

Step 11

Place the truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 15 minutes to set the white chocolate drizzle.

Step 12

Store the truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
