Indulge in the luxurious combination of smooth, creamy chocolate ganache mixed with fresh strawberry pieces in these delightful truffles. A perfect blend of rich chocolate and bright, juicy strawberries, these truffles offer a gourmet experience with minimal effort. They are ideal for impressing guests or as a heartfelt homemade gift.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl.
Heat the cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Do not boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for a minute to melt the chocolate.
Stir the mixture gently until smooth to form a ganache.
Let the ganache cool slightly, then gently fold in finely chopped strawberries.
Allow the mixture to cool and firm up in the refrigerator for about an hour, or until it holds its shape when scooped.
Once the ganache has firmed, use a teaspoon or small scoop to form bite-sized balls and roll them between your palms to shape them perfectly.
For a classic finish, roll each truffle in cocoa powder, ensuring they are fully coated, or drizzle with melted white chocolate for an extra touch of elegance.
Place the finished truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them set at room temperature.
Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Allow them to come to room temperature before indulging.
