Ganache Truffles

Ingredients
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 3/4 cups semisweet, bittersweet, milk, or white chocolate chips (if using white chocolate, use a brand that uses real cocoa butter instead of hydrogenated oils)
  • Flavored liqueurs, instant coffee granules, flavoring extracts, matcha powder, etc. (optional)
  • Cocoa powder, desiccated coconut, crushed peppermint, matcha powder, sprinkles, or other desired coatings to coat
Directions
  1. In the top of a double boiler, heat the cream until almost boiling. Stir in the chocolate chips over low-medium heat until smooth. Add flavoring of choice. Transfer to a container and refrigerate until firm.
  2. Use a spoon to scoop out balls of chocolate (about 1-inch in diameter). Quickly roll in between your hands to make a more spherical shape. Roll in desired coating and refrigerate in an airtight container until serving.
