Ingredients
Scale
For the Truffles:
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons blueberry jam or preserves
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup freeze-dried blueberries, crushed (for coating)
- Optional: extra melted white chocolate for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the Truffle Mixture: In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the heavy cream until just simmering. Remove from heat and stir in the white chocolate until completely melted and smooth. Mix in the blueberry jam, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until fully incorporated.
- Chill and Shape the Truffles: Let the mixture cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate for 2–3 hours or until firm enough to scoop. Once chilled, scoop out small portions using a teaspoon or melon baller and roll into balls.
- Coat the Truffles: Roll each truffle in the crushed freeze-dried blueberries until fully coated. Place on a parchment-lined tray and chill for another 15–30 minutes to set.
- Optional Drizzle: Drizzle with melted white chocolate if desired before serving.
Notes
- Store truffles in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- For a smoother texture, strain blueberry jam before using.
- You can substitute the blueberry coating with finely chopped nuts or shredded coconut if preferred.
