Ingredients for Passion Fruit Truffles:
- 1.1 lbs (500g) white chocolate, chopped
- ½ cup concentrated passion fruit juice
- ½ cup heavy cream (well-chilled and drained of excess liquid)
- 12 oz (350g) tempered semi-sweet chocolate (for coating)
How to Make Passion Fruit Truffles:
- Start by melting the white chocolate. You can melt it in the microwave or using a double boiler. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second increments, stirring thoroughly between each interval, until completely smooth.
- Add the concentrated passion fruit juice and the heavy cream to the melted white chocolate. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about three hours, or until it is firm enough to handle.
- Remove from the refrigerator and, using your hands, shape the mixture into small truffle balls.
- Next, melt your tempered semi-sweet chocolate and dip each truffle ball into it. Be sure to shake off any excess chocolate and place the truffles on parchment paper to set.
- Place the truffles back in the refrigerator for another two hours, or until they are completely firm.
- After this time, your passion fruit truffles are ready to be enjoyed. Savor this explosion of tropical flavor!
Pro Tip:
For perfectly round truffles, use two spoons to shape the mixture. Scoop a portion with one spoon and use the other to create circular movements to shape the ball.
