Yield Makes 64 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 oz Lindt white chocolate
1 cup salted dry-roasted macadamia nuts (5 oz)
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 1/2 cups finely shredded unsweetened desiccated coconut

Steps:

  • Finely grind white chocolate in a food processor and transfer to a bowl. Pulse nuts in food processor until finely ground (be careful not to grind to a paste).
  • Bring cream to a simmer in a medium skillet. Remove from heat and stir in rum. Whisk in white chocolate until melted and ganache is smooth. Stir in nuts. Pour ganache into a plastic-wrap-lined 8-inch square baking pan and chill, uncovered, until firm, about 4 hours.
  • Invert ganache onto a work surface and remove plastic wrap. Cut ganache into 64 squares and roll each piece between your palms to form a ball. When all balls are formed, roll in coconut to cover completely, then chill truffles, covered, until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate.
  • If you don't have macadamia nut butter, you can make your own by blending roasted macadamia nuts in a food processor until smooth.
  • To make the truffles even more decadent, you can dip them in melted chocolate after they have been rolled in the coconut.
  • If you are short on time, you can skip the chilling step and roll the truffles immediately after they have been formed.
  • Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

These Coconut Macadamia Truffles are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are rich, creamy, and have a wonderful coconut flavor. The truffles are also gluten-free and can be made vegan by using vegan chocolate and coconut milk. Whether you are looking for a special dessert to serve at a party or a sweet treat to enjoy on your own, these Coconut Macadamia Truffles are sure to please.
