Edible Dough Truffles

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups premium flour
  • 110 g unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • A pinch of salt
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cups white chocolate mini-chips (or chop regular chocolate chips with a knife)
  • 2 tbsp. green topping
  • 300 gr. white chocolate granules
  • 1 tbsp. of shortening or vegetable oil
  • Green nonpareil, for topping

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C. Spread the flour on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring once, for 10 minutes. Let cool on the sheet; whisk to break up any lumps.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and salt with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the toasted flour, then the lime juice and vanilla. Stir in the mini white chocolate chips and green sprinkles. Refrigerate the dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and roll into balls; place them on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  4. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate and shortening. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted, 1-2 minutes.
  5. Carefully place a ball of dough into the melted white chocolate and spoon in more chocolate to coat completely. Lift with a fork, let any excess drip back into the bowl, and return the balls to the baking sheet. Sprinkle with nonpareils.
  6. Repeat with the remaining dough balls. If the melted chocolate hardens, microwave it for 30 seconds. If the dough becomes too soft, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes.
