Orange Creamsicle Truffles

Orange Creamsicle Truffles

These truffles are a delightful way to bring a touch of elegance to your dessert repertoire.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 30 minutes
  • Yield: Makes about 20 truffles 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 12 ounces white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • White chocolate or orange candy melts, for coating
  • Orange sprinkles or extra zest, for decoration

Instructions

  1. Warm the Cream: In a saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: Remove from heat and stir in the chopped white chocolate until completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Add Flavor: Incorporate the orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract into the chocolate mixture, blending thoroughly.
  4. Chill: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until it is firm enough to shape.
  5. Shape the Truffles: Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop out the mixture and roll into balls. If the mixture sticks, chill a bit longer or dust your hands with cocoa powder.
  6. Coat the Truffles: Melt additional white chocolate or candy melts. Dip each truffle into the chocolate, ensuring a complete coat.
  7. Decorate: Before the coating sets, sprinkle each truffle with orange sprinkles or zest for a decorative touch.
  8. Set: Allow the truffles to set on parchment paper until the coating is firm.
