How to Make Smooth White Chocolate Truffles

  • Melt white chocolate chips and chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals while stirring until smooth. Stir in the room temperature heavy cream and pure vanilla until well combined.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the ganache for 2-3 hours, allowing it to firm up but remain scoopable for shaping.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scoop to portion the ganache into 1-inch balls, placing them evenly spaced on the lined baking sheet.
  • In a clean bowl, melt additional chopped white chocolate in the microwave using 20-30 second intervals, stirring until smooth. Allow to cool slightly to between 85-90°F for easy dipping.
  • Dip each ganache ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring complete coverage while tapping off the excess. Sprinkle your chosen toppings immediately while the coating is still wet.
  • Place the coated truffles at room temperature on the baking sheet. Allow them to sit for 30-45 minutes until the chocolate is set and firm.
  • For additional flair, drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the truffles and let it set. Dust lightly with powdered sugar before serving to enhance visual appeal.

Notes

Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, freeze truffles for up to 3 months.
