Crunchy Chocolate Truffle Cups Recipes

CRUNCHY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE CUPS

Steps:

• Place mini foil baking cup in each of 30 mini muffin cups. Spray foil cups with cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, place 3/4 cup chocolate chips; set aside. In 1-quart saucepan, heat 1/3 cup whipping cream and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat, stirring until butter is melted and mixture begins to boil. Pour cream mixture over chocolate in bowl; stir until smooth. Add crushed granola bars and marshmallows; mix well. Spoon slightly less than 1 measuring tablespoonful mixture into each muffin cup; gently press into cups.
• In small bowl, place 2/3 cup chocolate chips; set aside. In 1-quart saucepan, heat 1/3 cup whipping cream and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat, stirring until butter is melted and mixture begins to boil. Pour cream mixture over chocolate in bowl; stir until smooth. Spoon melted chocolate over each crunchy truffle; smooth top with tip of spoon. Decorate with candy sprinkles.
• Refrigerate about 3 hours or until firm. Store covered in refrigerator.

CRUNCHY COATED CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat the light cream over medium-low heat until it comes to a simmer. Divide the chocolate chips equally into 2 bowls and evenly pour the hot cream between the 2 bowls. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Add cinnamon to 1 of the bowls of melted chocolate. Place a spoon or ice pop stick into the bowl with the cinnamon so that you can differentiate it when you scoop them out. Put the ganache into the refrigerator until it firms up, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• In the meantime, place the graham cracker boards in a food storage bag and crush with your hands to make crumbs. Put the crumbs and the toasted coconut on separate flat plates.
• Remove the ganache from the refrigerator. Using a small ice cream scoop or tablespoon, scoop out the ganache into the toppings. The cinnamon flavored chocolate goes into the graham cracker crumbs and the plain chocolate goes into the coconut. Roll them around to coat and form small balls. Work quickly to prevent the chocolate from melting. Transfer to a sheet pan and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set. Place on a plate and serve.

CRISPY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream to a small saucepan. Use a paring knife to split the vanilla bean lengthwise. Scrape the vanilla beans seeds from the pod and add to the cream along with the empty pod. Heat over low until just starting to simmer.
• Meanwhile, use a serrated knife to finely chop the chocolate and put in a heatproof bowl.
• Remove the vanilla pod, squeezing it to release any cream. Discard or reserve for another use.
• Pour 1/3 cup of the hot vanilla cream over the chocolate (measure, as some cream will have evaporated) and use a rubber spatula to stir in small, circular motions until combined. Add the butter and continue to make circular motions until the mixture is completely melted and combined with no bits or streaks of butter. Stir in 1 cup of the puffed cereal, the hazelnuts and orange zest. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the ganache for 1 hour to firm up.
• Put the remaining 1 cup cereal in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin or the back of a pot. Transfer to a shallow bowl.
• Line a sheet pan with parchment. Use a tablespoon to scoop the ganache and roll it into a ball with both hands. Dip the ball in the crushed cereal to coat. Transfer the truffle to the prepared pan. Repeat with the remaining ganache and cereal. Put the truffles in mini muffin liners, if you like.
• Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or at room temperature for up to 4 days.
