Lemon Truffles Recipe

🍋 Lemon Truffles Recipe 🍋

Ingredients:

1/4 cup unsalted butter 🧈
1/3 cup heavy cream 🥛
1 cup white chocolate chips 🍫
3 tablespoons lemon juice 🍹
Zest of 1 lemon 🍋
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 🌼
Extra white chocolate, melted, for coating 🍫
Lemon zest or crushed lemon candy for garnish 🎉

Instructions:

Prepare Lemon Infusion:

In a small saucepan, heat butter 🧈 and cream 🥛 over low heat until the butter is melted (don’t let it boil! 🔥).
Remove from heat and add 1 cup of white chocolate chips 🍫. Let sit for a minute, then whisk until smooth 🌀.
Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is well incorporated 🥄.

Chill:

Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle ❄️.

Form Truffles:

Using a melon baller or a teaspoon, scoop out balls of the chilled mixture. Roll them quickly with your hands to form smooth balls 🎱.
Place the truffle balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill again until firm 📜❄️.

Coat and Garnish:

Dip each truffle into melted white chocolate, using a fork to help coat them evenly 🍫.

Sprinkle some lemon zest or crushed lemon candy on top before the chocolate sets for that zesty sparkle ✨.

Serve or Store:

Let the truffles set at room temperature until the chocolate coating is firm 🕒.
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week (if they last that long! 😋)
