Decadent Chocolate Hazelnut Truffles
Rich and decadent! Great for dessert and/or gifting.
Ingredients
- 5 oz. dark chocolate roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup smooth hazelnut butter
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 oz. roasted hazelnuts divided
Instructions
- Place a medium saucepan over low heat. Add dark chocolate, heavy cream, sugar, and honey. Stirring frequently, allow the chocolate to melt.
- Once all the chocolate has melted, remove from heat and stir in the hazelnut butter and vanilla extract.
- Transfer the saucepan into the refrigerator and allow to cool for at least 2 hours or until completely hardened.
- Reserve 16 hazelnuts and chop the remaining nuts, taking care to to chop them too finely. Add the chopped hazelnuts to a shallow bowl.
- Once the chocolate mixture is completely cold and set, scoop out about a tablespoon and flatten in the palm of your hand. Place one hazelnut into the center of the disc and roll the mixture around the hazelnut, forming a ball. Roll the truffle into the chopped hazelnuts.
- Repeat this process until you have rolled all 16 truffles. Place in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!
For best results using a high quality (70% Cacao) dark chocolate is strongly recommended.
