Chocolate Raspberry Truffles

Servings 12

Ingredients

Raspberry Ganache

• 1 ⅓ cup Frozen raspberries
• ¼ cup Powdered sugar
• ¼ cup Heavy whipping cream
• 7 oz Good quality white chocolate
• 1 TBSP Water

Dipping

• 7 oz Dark chocolate 52% to 70% cocoa

Decoration (optional)

• Pink chocolate as ruby chocolate or pink candy melts

Instructions

• Start to defrost the raspberries.
• Chop finely the white chocolate. Set aside. (Note: absolutely necessary to chop finely the chocolate. It will help to melt uniformly in the puree)
• Add the thawed raspberries in a blender and whizz until they are completely reduced in puree.
• Pour the raspberry puree through a strainer to remove the seeds. You might need to add a bit of water if your puree is too thick (just a little bit of water, we still want a puree texture).
• In a saucepan, add the raspberry puree and the powdered sugar. Stir.
• Over medium heat, bring to boil, stirring frequently.
• Once boiled, heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until it is reduced by about half. It takes about 25 minutes.
• Add the heavy whipping cream. Mix until fully incorporated.
• In a large bowl, add the chopped white chocolate. Pour the warm raspberry puree and stir until the chocolate is melted and the texture is smooth. (Note: you can let your bowl in a warm water bath. It would help to melt the chocolate.)
• Cover with a plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 2 hours until firm.
• Scoop the ganache and, using your hands, shape into small balls (about 1 inch diameter).
• Melt the dark chocolate. Using a fork, dip a truffle into the melted chocolate. Shake gently to allow any excess of chocolate to drip back.
• Place the truffle onto a baking sheet lined with a baking parchment. Dip the remaining truffles, one by one.
• Refrigerate the truffles until the chocolate is set (about 25 min). Note: You should have an excess of dark chocolate but necessary to dip the truffles properly. Once all the truffles are covered with chocolate, pour the remaining melted chocolate on a baking parchment, spread it and let it set. You can reuse it later.
