Description
Indulge in these elegant Honey Lavender White Chocolate Truffles, featuring a delightful blend of creamy white chocolate, aromatic lavender, and sweet honey.
Ingredients
Scale
2 cups white chocolate pieces
½ cup heavy cream
5 teaspoons dried culinary lavender
2 Tablespoons honey
1 drop violet food coloring
1 drop royal blue food coloring
1 drop super red food coloring
2 cups white chocolate
melted or tempered
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream and dried lavender over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat, allowing it to steep for about 15 minutes.
- Strain the lavender-infused cream through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding the lavender leaves.
- Add the white chocolate pieces and honey to the warm cream. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- If desired, add food coloring to achieve your preferred hue and mix well.
- Refrigerate the mixture for about an hour or until it is firm enough to scoop.
- Once set, use a melon baller or small scoop to form balls, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Return the truffles to the refrigerator until firm again, about 30 minutes.
- Melt the additional white chocolate for coating. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, and place back on the parchment paper to set.
Notes
For a floral touch, consider adding crushed edible flowers on top of the dipped truffles before the coating sets.
