Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces high-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- Zest of 2 large lemons
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 1/2 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers or graham crackers
- 1 cup powdered sugar, for rolling
Instructions
- Place the finely chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to soften. Gently whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Whisk in the room-temperature butter, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until everything is fully incorporated.
- Stir in the finely crushed vanilla wafers or graham crackers. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
- Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Using a small cookie scoop or a teaspoon, scoop out portions of the chilled mixture and quickly roll them into 1-inch balls between your palms. A light dusting of powdered sugar on your hands can help with sticking.
- Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until lightly coated. Place the finished truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for another 30 minutes to set completely before serving.
