Berrylicious Chocolate Truffles Recipe: Veggie

Ingredients
Method

Ingredients:

225g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
½ cup unsweetened almond or soy milk, at room temperature
2 tbsp coconut syrup
a few drops of natural raspberry flavouring

For the filling:

Popcorn Shed’s Berry-licious gourmet popcorn

For the coating:

cocoa powder

method:

Chop the chocolate into small chunks and place them in a heatproof bowl that sits on top of a saucepan with simmering water. Melt the chocolate making sure there’s no steam or water in the chocolate.
Remove from the bowl from the heat and add in the milk (must be at room temperature), coconut syrup and a few drops of raspberry flavouring. Stir using a small heatproof spatula until the ganache looks glossy and smooth. Let it cool at room temperature and then transfer to the fridge (uncovered) until it thickens, preferably overnight.
For each truffle, scoop out ½ tablespoon of chocolate ganache, place a popcorn in the middle of the truffle and quickly roll into a ball. Transfer the truffles to an airtight container and let them firm up again in the freezer for about eight minutes.
Place the cocoa powder on a large flat plate and roll the truffles in the cocoa. Store the truffles, covered, in the fridge and let them come to room temperature for five minutes before serving.
