05 Step
Recipe View
Refrigerate for 1 ½ to 2 hours, or until the ganache is firm enough to handle but not rock solid. This allows it to set to the perfect truffle consistency. (90-120 minutes)
For a bolder chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate with a higher cocoa percentage.
Experiment with different extracts such as peppermint, almond, or coffee for unique flavor infusions.
Once the truffles are formed, roll them in cocoa powder, powdered sugar, chopped nuts, or festive sprinkles for an elegant finish.
Store your homemade truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
