Dark Chocolate & Passion Fruit Truffles Recipe

Dark Chocolate & Passion Fruit Truffles (Makes 24)

 

Rich, velvety truffles infused with zingy passion fruit. An indulgent, romantic treat...

 

Ingredients: 300ml Double Cream

                            300g Dark Chocolate (Chopped)

                            1 Teaspoon Salt

                            Cocoa powder

                            4 Passion Fruits

Method:

1. In a medium sized pan add the cream and pulp of the passion fruit to infuse and bring to a simmer.

2. Meanwhile in another pan fill up a saucepan half-way with water and put on a medium/high heat to a simmer. Melt the chocolate in a large bowl over the saucepan.

3. When the cream is simmering, remove the pan from the heat, pass the cream through a sieve and add the salt.

4. Add the melted chocolate at a third of a time, to make sure all the chocolate and cream is incorporated. Allow to cool.

5. Once cool, pour the chocolate mixture onto a lined tray and leave to stand at room temperature for 2-3 hours. Than place into the fridge for 4 hours, or until set.

6. Once set use a melon baller to scoop balls of the chocolate mix out, and coat in cocoa powder before serving.
