Description
Bright, creamy, and softly boozy, these White Chocolate Limoncello Truffles melt on the tongue and leave a lively lemon-sugar finish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces white chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Limoncello
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup cocoa powder or powdered sugar (for coating)
Instructions
- Chop the white chocolate into small pieces and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat, add chopped white chocolate, and let sit for 30 seconds.
- Stir the mixture until smooth, then stir in limoncello and vanilla extract. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for about 2 hours or until firm.
- Once firm, scoop small portions, roll into balls, and coat with cocoa powder or powdered sugar. Place on the lined tray and chill until ready to serve.
