I added black tea to my regular chocolate truffles.
*You can make more truffles if you shape them slightly smaller.
*I made the pictured cake by coating some chocolate mousse with chocolate sauce. I made the glacage with heavy cream and a chocolate bar.

Step 1: You can substitute the parchment paper with a sheet of plastic wrap.
Step 3: Please remove from the heat when coating with the chocolate. Adding mizuame is optional.
Step 4: The truffles will melt if your coating chocolate is too hot. Ideally, it should be around 30°C. For 10 truffles. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Ingredients

10 servings
  1. 150 gramsDark chocolate
  2. 75 mlHeavy cream
  3. 1 1/2 tspEarl Grey tea leaves
  4. 1 tspMizuame
  5. 60 grams★Dark chocolate

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Finely chop the chocolate into a bowl. Just break the chocolate along the cracks if you're melting it in the microwave.

  2. 2

    Heat the heavy cream, mizuame, and the Earl Grey tea leaves in a pot. Turn the heat off when it's just about to boil.

  3. 3

    Pour the mixture from Step 2 through a tea strainer and add into the bowl from Step 1. Mix well with a rubber spatula.

  4. 4

    Pour the chocolate into a mold lined with parchment paper. Chill in the fridge to harden.

  5. 5

    When hardened, cut into desired sizes using a knife and roll them up into balls. Chill in the fridge.

  6. 6

    Finely chop the ★ chocolate and melt in a double boiler. Take care not to overheat the chocolate as it will melt the truffles when used as coating.

  7. 7

    Dip the truffles into the melted chocolate one-by-one. Roll them around with a fork, then transfer to line on a sheet of parchment paper. Chill in the fridge to harden.

  8. 8

    A bar of chocolate will be plenty to prepare the coating, but you can also melt any leftover chocolate from Step 1.

  9. 9

    Please keep your eyes on the chocolate when melting in the microwave. (For best results, melt in a double boiler.)
