White Chocolate Raspberry Truffles (Printable)

Luxuriously smooth white chocolate and raspberry confections, finished with a delicate sugar dusting.

# Ingredient List:

→ Truffle Mixture

01 - 7 oz high-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
02 - 1/4 cup heavy cream
03 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
04 - 2 tablespoons freeze-dried raspberries, finely crushed

→ Coating & Dusting

05 - 3.5 oz white chocolate, melted for coating
06 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for dusting
07 - 1 tablespoon freeze-dried raspberry powder, optional for extra color

# How to Make:

01 - Place 7 oz finely chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
02 - In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream and butter over medium heat until just simmering, not boiling.
03 - Pour the hot cream mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir gently until smooth and fully melted.
04 - Fold in the crushed freeze-dried raspberries until evenly distributed throughout the ganache.
05 - Cover and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
06 - Using a small spoon or melon baller, scoop out portions and roll into balls with your hands. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
07 - Chill the rolled truffles for 15 minutes to firm up before coating.
08 - Dip each truffle in the melted white chocolate to coat, letting excess drip off. Return to the tray.
09 - While the coating is still tacky, dust each truffle with powdered sugar and, if desired, a sprinkle of raspberry powder.
10 - Let truffles set at room temperature until coating is firm, approximately 30 minutes.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The raspberry cuts through white chocolates sweetness creating something sophisticated and balanced
  • These look impressive but actually come together with minimal active effort
  • They keep beautifully for gifting throughout the holiday season
02 -
  • If your ganache separates while stirring, a quick whisk with an electric mixer usually brings it back together
  • Chop your white chocolate into very small, even pieces so it melts smoothly without needing excess heat
  • Work quickly when rolling the truffles since the warmth of your hands will soften the mixture
03 -
  • Rub a tiny bit of coconut oil on your hands before rolling to prevent sticking
  • Use a fork to lift dipped truffles from the chocolate so excess drips away easily
  • If your coating sets too quickly, gently reheat it in 10-second bursts
