Macadamia Truffles

MAKES 14

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces white chocolate chopped
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 14 whole roasted salted macadamia nuts
  • Confectioners’ sugar as needed
  • Bittersweet chocolate candy coating melted
  • Garnish: finely chopped macadamia nuts

Method
 

  1. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, place white chocolate; microwave until partially melted, about 30 seconds.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, place heavy cream and coconut extract; microwave in 30-second intervals until steaming. Pour over partially melted white chocolate, and stir until fully melted. Place in fridge to set, about 1 hour.
  4. Using a 1-inch spring-loaded scoop, scoop white chocolate mixture onto prepared pan. Press 1 whole macadamia into the center of each round. Refrigerate 1 hour more.
  5. Roll each truffle in confectioners’ sugar, and using your hands, roll into balls. Dip truffles in melted bittersweet chocolate. Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if desired. Refrigerate until set.
