Cook Time:
5 minutes
Servings:
18 Truffles
Ingredients
12 ounces white chocolate, chopped
½ cup heavy cream
1 ounce butter
½ teaspoon pistachio extract
1 cup shelled pistachios
Directions
Fill a small saucepan with 1-2 inches of water and place it over low heat. Place a bowl on top, making sure it doesn't touch the water.
Add the white chocolate, cream, butter, and pistachio extract to the bowl over the bain-marie.
Stir the ingredients over the bain-marie until the mixture is melted.
Set the mixture aside to cool, and once it reaches room temperature, transfer to the fridge for at least 4 hours to harden.
Add the pistachios to a food processor and blend for 30 seconds until finely ground.
Use a teaspoon to scoop out portions of the truffle mixture.
Roll the mixture between your palms to create rough circular shapes.
Roll the formed truffles around in the ground pistachios to thoroughly coat.
Return to the fridge for at least 30 minutes to harden.
Store in the fridge or serve the truffles right away.
