Ingredients:
- 8 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons cannabis-infused butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional coatings: cocoa powder, powdered sugar, crushed nuts, shredded coconut, sprinkles, or melted chocolate for dipping
Instructions:
- Place the finely chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not boil.
- Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
- Gently whisk the chocolate and cream together until smooth and well combined. If the chocolate doesn’t completely melt, you can place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and continue to stir until smooth.
- Stir in the softened cannabis-infused butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the chocolate ganache mixture for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to handle.
- Once the ganache is firm, use a spoon or a small scoop to portion out small rounds of chocolate mixture. Roll each portion between your palms to form smooth balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- If desired, roll the truffles in your choice of coatings: cocoa powder, powdered sugar, crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or sprinkles. Alternatively, you can dip the truffles in melted chocolate for a decadent shell.
- Return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 30 minutes to set.
- Once set, transfer the Cannabis-Infused Chocolate Truffles to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Enjoy your delicious and indulgent Cannabis-Infused Chocolate Truffles responsibly, and remember to dose according to your tolerance level.
These rich and decadent truffles make a perfect treat for special occasions or as a thoughtful gift for friends and loved ones. With their smooth chocolatey goodness and a hint of cannabis, they’re sure to impress even the most discerning palates!
