Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225 g) white chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 cup (120 g) fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream (can substitute full-fat coconut milk for dairy-free)
- 2 tbsp (28 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tbsp (15 g) powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Freeze-dried raspberries or cocoa powder for coating (optional)
Instructions
- Puree the raspberries in a blender or food processor until smooth. For chunkier texture, mash with a fork. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. (About 5 minutes)
- Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it starts to simmer around the edges, about 3–4 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
- Place white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Pour warm cream over chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes to soften. Whisk gently until smooth and glossy. If not fully melted, use a double boiler to finish melting.
- Stir in the strained raspberry puree, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until fully combined and smooth. Add powdered sugar if a sweeter taste is desired. (About 5 minutes)
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
- Using a small cookie scoop or teaspoon, portion out small balls of the chilled mixture. Roll quickly between palms to form smooth spheres. If mixture softens too much, chill for 10 minutes.
- Roll each truffle in powdered sugar, crushed freeze-dried raspberries, or cocoa powder to coat evenly. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate coated truffles for another 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
Be gentle when mixing raspberry puree with white chocolate to avoid seizing. Keep hands cool when rolling truffles to prevent melting. If mixture is too loose, add a teaspoon of cornstarch to firm it up without changing flavor. Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze individually wrapped.
