Chocolate Truffles
2017 was the year I first learned about blockchain technology and joined Steemit. This year, I have decided to share one of my side passions with my followers and publish some homemade recipes a good friend of mine has shown me to cook and also, given me the pleasure to taste.
I encourage you to try them, they are very easy as I have never cooked before and they came out pretty good!. Some of the recipes are Spanish traditional food. Others like this one are just international recipes.
I wish you enjoy cooking and tasting them as much as I have done it myself.
I have decided to start with chocolate as it is one of the ingredients almost everyone loves. Now you do not have an excuse not to try to cook these delicious truffles.
Here are the ingredients for about 40 pieces:
- 250 gr. of dark chocolate
- 200 ml of whipping cream.
- 3 egg white.
- 5 sugar teaspoon,
- 100 gr. of butter.
- Chocolate vermicelli for final decoration
Start adding the dark chocolate, butter, and sugar in a bowl. Warm it on the microwaves a couple of minutes to melt all the ingredients.
Add the white egg and stir for a while until you get a nice homogeneous cream.
Now, add the whipping cream to a different bowl and whip it. Remember to have the cream cold, it should be from the fridge. Leaving it on the freezer for 15 minutes just before whipping is recommended before whipping it. Also, remember to purchase cream with a minimum of 35% fat, otherwise it will not become whipped.
Add the whipped cream with the previously mixed chocolate cream and fill in a silicone ice cube mold. Leave it in the freezer for a few hours until it solidifies.
Finally, once solidified, get them out of the mold and add the vermicelli as decoration.
They will now be ready to serve as a meal dessert or just as a treat any other time of the day. I hope you enjoy them!
