Raspberry & Dark Chocolate Truffles

Ingredients

  • 226g dark chocolate

  • 115g double cream

  • 2tbsp Thursday Cottage Raspberry Jam

  • 15g cocoa powder

Directions

  1. Chop the chocolate as finely as possible and tip it into a large bowl.

  2. Heat the cream over a low heat on the stove, or in short spurts in the microwave.

  3. Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate. Leave to melt for 2 minutes before giving it a good stir. If the chocolate hasn’t fully melted, place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and gently heat until no solids remain.

  4. Stir in the Raspberry Jam and transfer the truffle mixture to the fridge. Chill for two hours.

  5. Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop the ganache into balls. Roll each truffle in cocoa powder to set.

  6. Bag up the truffles and refrigerate until giving/enjoying yourself.
