Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz white chocolate, finely chopped (for filling)
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp finely grated orange zest
- 1 tsp orange extract
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp fine salt
- 10 oz white chocolate, melted (for coating)
- 2 tsp neutral oil (coconut or vegetable) for thinning
- 2 tbsp orange-colored sugar sprinkles, for garnish optional
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Line a baking sheet with parchment. Finely chop the filling chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl.
- Warm the cream, butter, and orange zest in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming and just starting to simmer.
- Pour the hot cream mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let stand 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
- Stir in orange extract, vanilla, and salt. Spread the mixture in a shallow dish, cover, and chill until firm enough to scoop, about 2 hours.
- Scoop 1-inch portions and roll into balls. Arrange on the lined sheet and freeze 15–20 minutes to set.
- Melt coating chocolate with the oil until smooth. Dip each chilled truffle, letting excess drip off. Set on the sheet and add sprinkles before the coating firms.
- Chill 10 minutes to fully set. Serve cold or at cool room temperature.
Notes
Variation: Add a drop of orange gel food color to the coating for a creamsicle hue, or roll in finely shredded coconut instead of sprinkles. Storage: Keep truffles refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week, or freeze up to 2 months.
