An
impressive milk chocolate truffle with a center of coconut. Tasty, lovely, and
gluten free!
Ingredients
Coconut
Layer
100 grams shredded coconut
100 ml (3 oz) sweet condensed milk
Truffle Layer
300 grams milk chocolate
75 ml whip cream
10-20 grams glucose/butter (for preservation,
optional)
1 Tbsp of liqueur of your choice (optional) – I
like Irish cream
1 Tbsp nut praline of your choice (optional)
Coating
nothing, sugar powder, shredded coconut,
bittersweet chocolate, cocoa powder
Preparation
Prepare the coconut dough, exact instructions
can be found in the Coconut Balls -Rafaello recipe,
leave to cool in the fridge for an hour.
On a bain-marie or in the microwave, melt the
chocolate while leaving aside a few pieces. After the chocolate melts, remove
from the heat source and steer the chocolate left aside while the chocolate
cools down. This will serve as seeding tempering and will make the chocolate
more stable. Add butter (if you want), the cream and steer. Add the liqueur or
praline if you want.
Pour the chocolate with a spoon on a
parchment paper on a cold surface to cool and harden.
Prepare a small ball (1 cm diameter). With
clean fingers take a spoon of the chocolate mixture and create a flat
‘button’, put the coconut ball in the middle and gently wrap the coconut ball
with the brown chocolate mix. roll into a ball shape.
You can now serve the balls as they are, roll
in coconut, sugar powder or cocoa powder, or dip in bittersweet chocolate
(preferably tempered). Keep refrigerated. You may freeze.
Your guest will be surprised – the white center
in the middle of the chocolate truffle!
