Instructions
- Add the chopped chocolate to a medium sized heatproof bowl and set aside.
- In a small saucepan, bring the heavy whipping cream to a simmer, about 10 minutes, and immediately remove from heat.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and whisk together until all the chocolate is melted.
- Mix in the Amaretto and vanilla and stir until everything is well combined and the mixture is smooth.
- Cover with plastic wrap and store in the fridge to cool for about 4 hours.
- After the mixture has chilled, use a cookie scoop to create 1-inch spheres.
- Roll the truffles in the cacao powder or almonds and enjoy chilled.
Notes
- Storage: Store chocolate amaretto truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
