If you love lemon-or know someone who does, you MUST make these White Chocolate Lemon Truffles asap!!!. It sound intimidating and all but I assure you that they are easy to make! With the holiday season upon us, they are perfect for gift giving and really quick and easy to make.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 60g butter
- zest of 1 lemon
- 3 tbsp double cream
- ½ tsp lemon extract
- 2-3 drop of yellow colouring, optional
- ¼ cup icing sugar
Method:
Place the white chocolate chips in a medium mixing bowl and set them aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter with the lemon zest. Stir in the double cream and scald (bring it to just before boiling) the mixture. Pour the cream mixture through a fine-mesh sieve over the white chocolate chips. Add the lemon extract and optional food colouring, then stir until the mixture is smooth.
Cover and refrigerate the chocolate chip mixture until the mixture is firm enough to handle, about 30 minutes.
Scoop heaping teaspoonfuls of the chocolate chip mixture and form into balls. Roll the balls in the icing sugar.
Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes before enjoying them.
