WHITE CHOCOLATE LIME TRUFFLES
Vit chokladtryffel med lime
Piped truffles look much more professional than just balls. Crème fraîche and lime is a nice contrast to the sweet white chocolate.
10½ oz white chocolate
1 lime
0.4 cup crème fraîche
1 teaspoon honey
1 oz room-tempered butter or margarine
powdered sugar if wanted
Finely chop the chocolate. Scrub the lime and finely grate the zest. Squeeze out 1 tablespoon of the juice.
Bring crème fraîche and honey to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and add the chocolate. Stir until it's completely melted. Stir in the butter in pieces until melted and last add lime zest and juice.
Leave the truffle in room temperature for a while to set and then pour it in a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle. Put small aluminum candy tins on a plate. When the truffle is firm enough to be piped, make fine tips in the tins and leave to set in the fridge. Store the truffles in an air-tight jar in the fridge and sift with some powdered sugar (if you wish) when serving.
If you don't want to pipe it, you can of course roll the truffle batter into round balls that you leave to set in the fridge.
Enjoy!
