Delicate Honey Lavender White Chocolate Truffles

by

These Honey Lavender White Chocolate Truffles are a luxurious and indulgent treat, combining the smooth sweetness of white chocolate with the delicate floral notes of lavender and the richness of honey. The truffles are coated with a dusting of powdered sugar, making them as beautiful as they are delicious. With their melt-in-your-mouth texture, they’re perfect for a special occasion or as a refined homemade gift.

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz white chocolate, chopped
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon dried lavender buds (culinary grade)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream and honey over low heat until it just begins to simmer. Add the dried lavender buds and remove from heat. Let steep for 5 minutes to infuse the lavender flavor into the cream.
  2. Strain the cream mixture through a fine sieve to remove the lavender buds and return the infused cream to the saucepan.
  3. Place the chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Pour the warm cream mixture over the white chocolate and let sit for 2-3 minutes to melt.
  4. Stir gently until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt, then mix well.
  5. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until firm enough to roll into balls.
  6. Once the ganache is firm, use a melon baller or spoon to scoop small amounts of the mixture and roll them into smooth balls.
  7. Roll each truffle in powdered sugar to coat and give it a beautiful, sweet finish.
  8. Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
