Notes
Mo’s tip: Keep in a container in the fridge until needed, then place in sweet cases. For a finishing touch you could add a little sprinkling of ICING sweetener. These are not very sweet, you could add a few drops of liquid sweetener, but it is nice to have something chocolatey but not too sweet. For a less ‘grown up’ flavour you could omit the rum or brandy and use orange extract. As the rum / brandy is simmered in the cream, this cooks off the alcohol leaving just the flavour. These are ideal treats.
I made 14 truffles, each one has: 4.44g fat / 0.44g protein / 0.57g CHO
Ingredients
- 8g Butter
- 50g Cocoa dark supreme – LINDT 90%
- 55g Double cream
- 2g Cocoa powder – DR OETKER
- You will also need a little ICING sweetener (optional) and two teaspoons of rum or brandy.
Instructions
- Blitz or grate the Lindt chocolate to get it as fine as possible, then weigh it.
- Heat together the cream, butter and rum in a small pan, gently simmer for a few minutes.
- Pour the hot cream onto the chocolate, beat well until the chocolate has melted.
- Pour into a container and leave to go cold.
- When it is cold, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge for several hours, overnight is best.
- Divide into equal portions, a teaspoon is big enough, shape into rough balls.
- Dust them with the sieved cocoa powder.
