These homemade Chocolate Truffles are decadent and delicious treats! Simple to make from a few ingredients like cream and butter, these easy truffles are favorites for chocolate lovers.
Add heavy cream and butter to a small saucepan and heat on low heat until the butter has melted and the cream is warmed throughout.
Add chocolate chips to a large glass or nonreactive bowl. Pour the warmed cream and butter mixture over the chocolate chips. Add in the brewed coffee and a pinch of salt. Allow to stand for about 3-5 minutes to soften the chocolate chips completely.
Stir briskly to combine and until smooth.
Pour into an airtight container and chill completely
Scoop portions of the chilled chocolate ganache mixture with a tablespoon or small scoop. Form and roll into a ball between the palms of your hands. Roll into desired coatings.
Notes
Note:The brewed coffee and a pinch of salt are optional. I use the coffee to enhance the flavor of the chocolate, but it is not required. The salt, in my opinion, helps to balance the chocolate but is not required either.
