Pro Tips for the Best Truffles

Use the best quality chocolate you can find, as it is the primary flavor of the dish. Additionally, if the ganache becomes too hard to roll, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften slightly.

Storage Instructions

Store your truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. For the best texture, let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before enjoying.

FAQ

Can I use milk chocolate? Yes, but you may need to reduce the cream slightly as milk chocolate is softer.
How do I prevent sticking? Lightly dust your hands with cocoa powder before rolling the truffles.
