3. Step-by-Step Instructions

Creating the perfect chocolate truffles from scratch

  1. Melt the chocolate: Use a double boiler or microwave in short bursts to melt the chopped chocolate until smooth. For quick melting, check out the Ninja Air Fryer Pro Crisp & Roast 4-in-1, which can help with melting and preparing ingredients evenly.
  2. Heat the cream: In a small saucepan, warm the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Don’t let it boil. Pour the hot cream over the melted chocolate and stir until fully combined.
  3. Add butter and vanilla: Stir in the softened butter and vanilla extract for added richness.
  4. Chill the mixture: Transfer the ganache to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
  5. Shape the truffles: Using a melon baller or teaspoon, scoop out small portions and roll into smooth balls. For professional results, Ninja SLUSHi Pro RapidChill Drink Maker helps cool ingredients quickly for efficient shaping.
  6. Coat the truffles: Roll each ball in unsweetened cocoa powder or customize with edible gold flakes for a luxe touch.
  7. Store and serve: Place finished truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to serve.

4. Storage Tips for Chocolate Truffles

How to Keep Your Gomez-inspired Chocolate Truffles Fresh

Store your chocolate truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze them wrapped individually in plastic wrap and then place in a sealed container. When ready to enjoy, let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly.
