White Chocolate Strawberry Rosé Truffles Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY ROSé TRUFFLES

Steps:

• In a medium-sized saucepan, add the white chocolate, butter, heavy cream, and salt. Melt over medium-low heat, stirring frequently.
• While the chocolate is melting, add the freeze-dried strawberries to a food processor and pulse. You want to reduce the freeze-dried strawberries down to small pieces. If you don't have a food processor, simply place the freeze-dried strawberries onto a sheet of parchment paper, cover with another sheet of parchment paper and crush using your hands or a rolling pin.
• Continue stirring the chocolate until it's completely melted. Add in the strawberries and rosé and stir to combine. Transfer to a mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator to solidify for about 2-3 hours.
• Once the truffle mix is solid enough to scoop out and roll into a ball, remove from refrigerator and begin the rolling process.
• Add the powdered sugar to a bowl, then scoop out about 1 Tbsp. of the truffle mix and gently roll into a ball with your hands. Next, roll the ball in the powdered sugar and place onto a platter or storage container.
• Continue the rolling process until all of the truffle mix has been rolled into balls and covered in powdered sugar.
• Place the white chocolate strawberry rosé truffles back into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
• Keep covered and refrigerated until ready to serve.
