CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES



Chocolate Truffles image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     dessert

Time 1h53m

Yield 60 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound good bittersweet chocolate such as Lindt
1/2 pound good semisweet chocolate such as Ghiradelli
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier, optional
1 tablespoon prepared coffee
1/2 teaspoon good vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar
Cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Chop the chocolates finely with a sharp knife. Place them in a heat-proof mixing bowl.
  • Heat the cream in a small saucepan until it just boils. Turn off the heat and allow the cream to sit for 20 seconds. Pour the cream through a fine-meshed sieve into the bowl with chocolate. With a wire whisk, slowly stir the cream and chocolates together until the chocolate is completely melted. Whisk in the Grand Marnier, if using, coffee, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • With 2 teaspoons, spoon round balls of the chocolate mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, until firm. Roll each dollop of chocolate in your hands to roughly make a round ball. Roll in confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, or both. These will keep refrigerated for weeks, but serve at room temperature.

  • Rich in Important Nutrients. Truffles boast an impressive nutrient profile and are high in many important vitamins and minerals. In fact, they’re high in carbs, protein and fiber and contain both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, as well as micronutrients, such as vitamin C, phosphorus, sodium, calcium, magnesium, manganese and iron (1).
  • High in Antioxidants. Truffles are a great source of antioxidants, compounds that help fight free radicals and prevent oxidative damage to your cells.
  • Has Antibacterial Properties. In addition to their stellar nutrient profile, truffles may also have antimicrobial properties that can help decrease the growth of specific strains of bacteria.
  • May Help Kill Cancer Cells. Though evidence is currently limited to test-tube studies, some research suggests that truffles may possess powerful anticancer properties.
  • May Help Reduce Inflammation. Inflammation is a vital part of your immune function that helps defend your body against infection and illness. However, sustaining high levels of inflammation in the long term is thought to contribute to the development of chronic disease (8).
  • Easy to Add to Your Diet. Once considered a pricey delicacy reserved for gourmet dishes, there are now plenty of ways to add truffles to your diet without having to empty your bank account.
