Ingredients
Ingredients
- Fresh Strawberries – 1 cup, washed and hulled
- White Chocolate – 8 oz, finely chopped
- Heavy Cream – 1/4 cup
- Powdered Sugar – 2 tbsp
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and hull the fresh strawberries, then purée them using a blender or food processor until smooth. Optionally, strain the purée for an ultra-smooth texture.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Gently melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently to avoid scorching.
- Mix Cream and Powdered Sugar: In a bowl, combine heavy cream and powdered sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture becomes silky.
- Combine All Ingredients: Slowly fold the strawberry purée into the melted white chocolate, then gently blend in the sweetened cream until you achieve a smooth, thick truffle batter.
- Chill the Mixture: Refrigerate the mixture for at least two hours or until it is firm enough to scoop and shape.
- Shape and Coat the Truffles: Use a small scoop or spoon to form truffle balls, then roll them in your choice of coatings such as powdered sugar or crushed freeze-dried strawberries to finish elegantly.
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries and high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
- Melt chocolate gently to maintain smooth texture without graininess.
- Chill the mixture thoroughly to make shaping easier and avoid sticky hands.
- Roll truffles immediately after shaping to prevent melting from hand warmth.
- Store truffles refrigerated in an airtight container to keep them fresh longer.
