Recipe for Lemon Truffles
List of items needed:
2 tablespoons of lemon juice squeezed from fresh lemons
1 cup of white chocolate chips
1/4 cup of thick cream
2 tablespoons of butter without salt
The peel of 2 lemons
2 cups of powdered sugar
Not required. Yellow dye drops
Make the chocolate mixture by mixing the white chocolate chips and butter in a bowl that can resist heat.
Warm the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it starts to simmer.
Mix the hot cream with the chocolate and butter. Mix until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Enhance the taste: Combine the grated lemon peel and lemon juice until well mixed.
Add the powdered sugar little by little to the chocolate mixture, stirring until it is smooth. If you want to make the color brighter, add a couple of drops of yellow food coloring.
Cool down: Put the mixture in the fridge for around 2 hours, or until it becomes solid enough to work with.
To make truffles: After cooling down, use a spoon or a melon baller to scoop the mixture and shape it into small balls. Cover each chocolate ball in powdered sugar to avoid them sticking together and to give them an extra touch of sweetness.
