Instructions
- Melt chocolate in microwave safe bowl 1 minute at a time stirring in between. Normally 2-3 minutes total.
- Add vanilla to the 1 cup of whipping cream. (I find it mixes best if this is at room temperature). Add this mixture to the melted chocolate. Stir until all mixed.
- This is the chocolate mixture after the cream has been incorporated. It is now ready to be put into a covered container and chilled for 1 hour.
- Form into small balls (I normally use a very small cookie scoop for nice even balls and to make them faster). I drop the balls into the chopped nuts, roll them around, and scoop them out using a teaspoon. I put them on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Cool. Enjoy!
Notes
Variations:
The recipe I provided above is the family’s favorite version. Play around with what you roll the truffles in to create your own unique taste if you choose. I have used cocoa powder, powdered sugar, colored granulated sugar, various kinds of nuts, coconut, and crushed graham crackers.
