Equipment
- small pot
- stainless steal bowl
- piping bag
- trays
Ingredients
- 250 gram dark chocolate 60-70%
- 200 millilitre heavy cream
- 40 gram unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon grand marnier
- 100 gram cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a stainless steel bowl combine the chopped chocolate, cream, butter and grand marnier.
- Place the bowl on top of a pot with lightly simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water directly).
- Stir the chocolate and cream mixture with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are well combined.
- Place the bowl with the chocolate ganache in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Leave longer if you feel the ganache isn't thick enough.
- Once the ganache has chilled, transfer the mixture into a piping bag.
- Line a tray with a baking sheet and pipe drops of the ganache leaving some space in between them.
- Keep in the fridge for at least 20 minutes for them to harden.
- Meanwhile prepare a bowl with the cocoa powder and roll the ganache drops in the cocoa powder. If the ganache feels soft use a fork to lift them rather than your hands.
- Coat the truffles with the cocoa powder from all sides and keep stored in the fridge until you use them.
