Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon raspberry flavoring
  • 1/4 cup raspberry preserves or jam melted
  • 20-24 raspberries

Optional for rolling

  • cocoa powder or chocolate sprinkles

Instructions

  • In a microwave-safe mixing bowl add chocolate chips & heavy cream. Heat in the microwave until the cream is very hot. I heat in 1-minute increments and check-in between (do not stir). It takes between 3-5 minutes.
  • Once hot stir until the chocolate and cream are smooth and well combined. Add raspberry flavoring & preserves and stir until well-combined.
  • Pour chocolate into a 9x13 pan. Cover with plastic wrap and set in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
  • Remove from the refrigerator.
  • Using a cookie dough scooper, fill half of the scooper with chocolate - add a raspberry in the center and the fill the remaining of the scooper with chocolate.
  • Place truffle on a plate lined with parchment paper. Repeat with remaining chocolate and raspberries.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for 1-hour if the truffles have softened. If they are still chilled, quickly roll each one between the palms of your hands. Coat with unsweetened cocoa powder or sprinkles.
  • Place back in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
