Ingredients
100g dark chocolate, chopped
100g cream (plant-based cream or coconut cream can be used)
Zest of 1 orange
100g pistachios, chopped
15g freeze-dried raspberries or 50g desiccated coconut
50g cacao powder
Directions
- In a bowl, break up the dark chocolate into small pieces.
- In a saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat. Add the orange zest, being careful to minimise the amount of white pith, which can be bitter. Heat until gently boiling.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until well combined and smooth.
- Place the mixture in the fridge to set for about 20-30 minutes.
- Once set, remove the mixture from the fridge and roll it into small balls, handling them minimally to avoid melting.
- Return the rolled truffles to the fridge to firm up while you prepare the toppings.
- Chop the pistachios finely and place them in a bowl. Put the coconut, cacao powder, and freeze-dried raspberries in separate bowls.
- . Roll the truffles in the topping mixtures to coat them as desired.
