Decadent Chocolate Truffles

Recipe card for Decadent Chocolate Truffles.
Course: Dessert

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 200g (1/2 cup) sweetened condensed milk
  • 15g (1 tbsp) cocoa powder
  • 15g (1 tbsp) unsalted butter
  • 30g (2 tbsp) sweet chocolate, chopped
  • Chocolate sprinkles, for decorating

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, and unsalted butter.
  2. Cook Mixture: Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the butter is melted and the ingredients are well combined.
  3. Add Chocolate: Add the chopped sweet chocolate to the saucepan. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  4. Cool: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. This will allow it to thicken slightly, making it easier to shape into truffles.
  5. Portion Out: Once the truffle mixture has cooled, use a spoon or a small cookie scoop to portion out small amounts of the mixture.
  6. Form Truffles: Roll each portion between your palms to form smooth, round truffles. Place the shaped truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
  7. Prepare Coating: Pour the chocolate sprinkles into a shallow dish or plate.
  8. Coat Truffles: Gently roll each truffle in the chocolate sprinkles until they are evenly coated.
  9. Chill: Place the decorated truffles back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  10. Ready to Serve: Once the chocolate truffles are firm, they are ready to be served and enjoyed.
  11. Serving Options: Serve these decadent treats on a platter or in decorative boxes or bags for gifting.
  12. Storage: Store any leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
