Delicious white chocolate truffles infused with fresh mango puree. Perfect for any sweet occasion!
Ingredients
Scale
- 200g white chocolate
- 150g fresh mango puree
- 50ml heavy cream
- 25g unsalted butter
- 100g crushed cookies or graham crackers
- A pinch of salt
- 100g white chocolate chips (for coating)
- Finely chopped nuts or cookie crumbs (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Mango Filling: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the mango puree, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Incorporate Chocolate: Break the white chocolate into small pieces and add it to the saucepan. Stir until fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Add Butter: Remove the saucepan from heat and add the unsalted butter. Stir until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is glossy.
- Chill the Mixture: Pour the mixture into a shallow dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Form Truffles: Once firm, scoop small amounts of the mixture and roll into balls (about the size of a tablespoon). Roll each ball in the crushed cookies or graham crackers for an additional layer of texture.
- Coat with White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler. Dip each truffle ball in the melted white chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Place the truffles on a lined baking sheet.
- Garnish: Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle with finely chopped nuts or cookie crumbs.
- Chill Again: Refrigerate the truffles until the chocolate coating is set, about 30 minutes.
Notes
- Use ripe, sweet mangoes for the best flavor in your puree.
- Ensure all utensils and bowls are dry before use to prevent chocolate from seizing.
- For a twist, add a splash of lime juice to the mango puree for added tanginess.
- These truffles should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within a week for optimal freshness.
