Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz semisweet chocolate chips
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp amaretto liqueur
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder for rolling

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Place the semisweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
  • Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer.
  • Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth.
  • Stir in the amaretto liqueur, vanilla extract, and salt until fully incorporated.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for about 2 hours until firm enough to shape.
  • Using a small scoop or spoon, form the chilled chocolate mixture into 1-inch balls.
  • Roll each ball in unsweetened cocoa powder to coat evenly.
  • Place the truffles on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.

Notes

Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Bring to room temperature before serving for best flavor.
