HOW TO MAKE WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES:

  1. Melt 2 cups of the white chocolate chips and set aside 1/2 cup.
  2. Pour melted chocolate into a silicone candy mold and let excess drip off. Using an offset spatula or bench scraper, scrape off excess chocolate—place in the fridge for 5 minutes to harden.
  3. While the chocolate mold is setting up, make the ganache. Place the butter, the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips, and the condensed milk in a medium-sized heatproof bowl.
  4. Microwave on high for one minute. Let stand one minute. Stir until smooth and combined, this may take a few minutes.
  5. Pour into a pastry bag and cut off a very small amount from the tip.
  6. Fill the molds almost all the way to the top with the ganache, leaving a small space to add more melted chocolate—place truffles in the fridge for 10 minutes to set.
  7. Once set, pour the remaining melted white chocolate from step 1 on top. Using an offset spatula or bench scraper, scrape off the excess chocolate.
  8. Place in the fridge for 5 minutes to set. Then, pop the chocolates out of the mold and enjoy!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS RECIPE:

Yes! If you make up a large batch of these you can store them in the freezer until you are ready to eat them.

Just let them thaw a few minutes before you snack on them!

For the best results, use high-quality white chocolate chips or white chocolate bars.

Look for chocolate that contains cocoa butter, as it melts smoothly and gives a luscious center to your truffles.

Avoid white chips that are called “white baking chips” without cocoa butter, as they might not melt well.

I love decadent desserts that come with an easy recipe. It makes these sweet treats really simple to change up!

  • Cocoa Powder: Roll the truffles in cocoa powder for a chocolatey coating.
  • Crushed Nuts: Roll in chopped macadamia nuts or almonds for a crunchy texture.
  • Lemon Zest: Add a teaspoon to the truffle mixture for a zesty flavor. Hello white chocolate lemon truffles!
  • Vanilla Extract: Mix in a teaspoon for extra sweetness.
  • Coconut Flakes: Add shredded coconut for a tropical twist.
  • Colored Sugar: Use festive sugar sprinkles for holidays or special occasions.
  • Dark Chocolate Drizzle: Melt dark chocolate and drizzle over the truffles.
  • Raspberry Flavor: Add a drop of raspberry extract to the mixture.
  • Crushed Cookies: Stir in crushed wafer cookies for added crunch.
  • Sea Salt: Sprinkle a pinch of salt on top to enhance the sweetness.

I know I’d be in hot water if I didn’t have a few ideas, haha!

These silky-smooth truffles can certainly stand a sub or two.

  • Unsalted Butter: You can use vegan butter for a dairy-free option.
  • White Chocolate Chips: Use white chocolate bars chopped into small pieces.
  • Butter: If you only have salted butter, you can use it.

Refrigerator: Place the truffles in an airtight container lined with parchment paper.

They can be stored in the fridge for up to two weeks.

They will also be good at room temperature in an air tight container for 1 week.

Freezer: You can freeze the truffles for up to three months.

Place them in a freezer-safe airtight container, separating layers with parchment paper.

When you’re ready to enjoy them, let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

DANA’S TIPS AND TRICKS:

  • Melt Chocolate Carefully: Use low heat or medium heat to melt the chocolate to avoid burning. Especially if using the stove top.
  • Add a Pinch of Salt: It enhances the flavor and balances the sweetness.
  • Get Creative with Toppings: Try various toppings like cocoa powder, chopped nuts, or even coconut oil mixed with chocolate for drizzling.
