Today I want to show you how to use one of my favourites products to work with, the chocolate.
With this easy recipe you will make great gluten-free chocolate truffles. I made these ones with coffee Arabica and almonds, to show you how to infuse and use the nuts, but you can personalize them with your favourite nuts.
They are great if you want to spend some time in the kitchen having fun with your kids or surprise your loved ones. You can store them in the fridge or even freeze them and have a sweet bite ready for any moment.
Ready to start? Let's have a look!
Ingredientes chocolate truffles:
250gr single cream
30gr almonds
250gr dark chocolate
50gr butter
8gr coffee Arabica
Cacao powder
Step by step:
Bring the single cream and the coffee to boil.
Leave in infusion to rest for at least 20 minutes. TIP: All the infusions need to brew for at least 20 minutes.
While the infusion it's resting, melt the chocolate at Bagne Marie. TIP: If you chop the chocolate it will melt faster.
Mix the melted chocolate with the infusion. TIP: Always start from the middle, making your way out.
Add the butter. For an homegeneus mix, use a hand blender.
Chop and add your nuts.
Leave in the fridge for 2 hours, or until it gets solid.
When solid, pour a glass of boilling water and shape them with a Parisienne or teaspoon.
Finish them with some cacao powder.
