Best Chocolate Pistachio And Tahini Truffles Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Heat the sweetened condensed milk, pistachio butter and 1 pound white chocolate chips in a double boiler over medium-low heat until the chocolate is melted. Stir; the mixture will have a slight marshmallow texture. Remove from the heat, then cover and refrigerate until chilled, 2 hours.
• Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Melt the remaining 1/2 pound white chocolate together with the coconut oil over a double boiler on medium-low heat until smooth. Set aside.
• Roll the chilled truffle batter into teaspoon-sized balls. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted white chocolate coating, and let the excess chocolate drip off. Immediately sprinkle with the chopped pistachios and place on the prepared sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make more truffles.
• Allow the chocolate exterior to set completely, about 30 minutes. If short on time, chill for 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container.

CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

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.
