Yield Makes about 30 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar
2/3 cup heavy cream
9 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened), chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
For coating
1/4 to 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted, and/or 1/2 to 1 cup pecans, ground fine

Steps:

  • In a dry heavy saucepan (about 3 1/2 quarts) cook sugar over moderate heat, stirring with a fork until melted, and swirl pan until sugar is a golden caramel. Remove pan from heat and add cream carefully (mixture will bubble up). Return pan to heat and simmer, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
  • Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, salt, and vanilla. Let mixture stand 5 minutes and stir until chocolate is melted. Transfer mixture to a bowl and cool, uncovered. Chill mixture, covered, 2 hours, or until firm.
  • Coat truffles:
  • Scoop out truffle mixture with a spoon and form into 1-inch balls. Roll truffles in 1/2 cup cocoa powder or coat with 1 cup pecans, pressing nuts slightly to adhere. (Alternatively, roll half of truffles in 1/4 cup cocoa powder and coat remaining truffles with 1/2 cup pecans.) Chill truffles on a tray lined with wax paper until firm, about 1 hour. Truffles keep in an airtight container, chilled, 2 weeks.

I'm not a fan of caramel, but I really enjoyed these truffles. The chocolate coating is so rich and decadent that it balances out the sweetness of the caramel.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my truffles didn't turn out as well as I hoped. I think I might have overcooked the caramel.

These truffles were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still enjoyable.

I was a bit disappointed with these truffles. The caramel center was too runny and the chocolate coating was too thick.
