Ingredients
- 360 g white chocolate chopped, 12.5 ounces
- ¼ cup cream not thickened cream
- 1 tbs Bourbon liqueur if using regular Bourbon reduce this to 2 to 3 tsp depending on your taste preferences
- ¼ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- ground nutmeg for sprinkling
Instructions
- Place 180g of the white chocolate along with the cream, bourbon liqueur and nutmeg and place in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
- Remove the chocolate mixture from the refrigerator and place a sheet of baking paper on a baking tray. Use a melon baller to scoop the mixture into balls. If the mixture is too hard leave for 5 to 10 minutes to soften. Roll in between the palms of your hands to neaten the shape and make a smooth surface. Place each ball on the baking paper and repeat with the remainder of the mixture. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour, or until firm.
- Take the remaining chocolate and place in a clean heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and melt the chocolate, stirring until smooth and runny. Using two forks, dip each ball in the white chocolate and tap the forks on the edge of the bowl to remove the excess chocolate. Place on the baking paper and sprinkle with ground nutmeg. Repeat with remaining truffles. Refrigerate until set.
Notes
- Makes a wonderful handmade Christmas gift!
