Chocolate Truffles, 2 Ways: With Sea Salt and Cocoa

by Jyo

Dear Chocolate, how to count the ways I love thee.

Whether you need a pick me up or a lift me up higher, chocolate’s got you covered. When chocolate-y goodness comes in creamy, dreamy, bite-sized truffle versions, dare I say that’s heaven in pint size form.

All you need is 4 ingredients, to make the basic truffle. There are no limits to what toppings you can use. You can roll them in Nutella, chopped nuts or even powdered sugar. I rolled mine in cocoa powder (easiest way to make them, and it cuts the intense sweet). I also attempted making them as Dark Chocolate Sea Salt truffles:  adding the truffles to melted dark chocolate & with a sprinkle of sea salt.  

They look impressive, AND don’t need much effort. I made a whole batch of these over the holidays, to gift to my coworkers & friends. I meant to make 36, I accidentally made 90. Because that’s what happens when you go “hey, I’ll just add just a little a bit more chocolate to this”.

Extra truffles eating & 10 pounds later, I can tell you, I regret nothing.

And neither will you. These truffles are super rich, decadent, & melt to velvety smoothness once you eat them. Oh, and after you make them, your house will smell like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate factory.
