Green Tea Truffles Recipe

Ingredients:
-
1 cup heavy cream
- 3 bags of Green Tea
You'll also want:
TIP:
Keep an ice pack next to you and in between rolling the ganache into balls hold the ice pack in your hands to keep your hands cold - then the chocolate won't melt while rolling the balls!
Prepare Ganache:
| 1. | Put 1 lb. of Fair Trade Organic Dark chocolate in a large mixing bowl. Do not melt the chocolate. Just put the discs in. |
| 2. | Bring cream slowly to a light boil in a heavy saucepan. |
| 3. | Remove from heat and add Green Tea bags. |
| 4. | Leave the tea bags in the cream until it cools. Remove the tea bag and once again bring the cream slowly to a boil |
| 5. | Pour boiling cream over chocolate and keep stirring until all the chocolate has melted. |
| 6. | When the ganache is warm it's creamy. You can thicken it by whisking it. |
| 7. | Cover the bowl of ganache and put it in the refrigerator (about 3 hours) or freezer (about 1 ½ hours) and chill until firm. You want the ganache to be just thick enough to easily form the truffle balls. |
Form Truffles: |
|
| 1. | Create 1" round balls by using a very small ice cream scooper or a melon baller if you have one - if not, just use your clean hands to grab some ganache and have fun rolling it into a ball - it's sort of like Play Dough. Place the balls on Heavy Weight Dipping Sheets and freeze until firm (about 45 minutes). |
| 2. | While the chocolate balls are in the freezer, melt the Bada Bing Bada Boom Dipping & Enrobing Chocolate in double boiler. Follow instructions that came with your chocolate, or click here for instructions. |
| 3. | After the chocolate balls are firm, use a stainless steel dipping tool to
dip each ball in the melted chocolate, then place onto heavy
weight dipping sheet to set up in refrigerator. |
| 4. | Melt Drizzle & Design Chocolate and ad coloring oil according to instructions. |
| 5. | Remove truffles from refrigerator and decorate with Drizzle & Design Chocolate. Return to the refrigerator until set.
Keep chilled until ready to serve. |
