Pink Chocolate Strawberry Truffles
Pink Chocolate Strawberry Truffles
Once upon a time, an eight year old little Georgia girl planted strawberries
….and they became her favorite.
The end.
Everyone in the south knows that on “tax day” strawberries are officially in season and perfect for the picking. Today we can pick up strawberries year round at the grocery store. They may not be as sweet as off the vine, but they are perfect for recipes.
Today I am sharing a super simple recipe for Pink Chocolate Strawberry Truffles.

Pink Chocolate Strawberry Truffles
Ingredients
1 cup fresh strawberries, washed and stems removed
14 ounces coarsely chopped white chocolate
2 tablespoons heavy cream
12 ounces pink melting chocolate
sprinkles
small ice-cream scoop
Directions
1. Place the strawberries in a food processor, and process until pureed.
2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds.
This will yield just about 1/4 cup. If you have more, save it for ice-cream or freeze it for a refreshing glass of water with lemon.
3. Melt the white chocolate chips using a double broiler or microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between each interval to prevent overheating.
4. Stir in the cream until smooth.
5. Add in ¼ cup strawberry puree and mix until well blended.
6. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
7. When chilled, scoop out balls of the strawberry cream and place each onto wax paper.
8. Next, melt the pink chocolate chips using a double broiler or microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between each interval.
9. Insert a wooden skewer into a strawberry ball and carefully twirl in the pink chocolate letting the excess drip away.
10. Place back onto the wax paper and sprinkle with sparkly sprinkles. Repeat with remaining strawberry cream balls.
Go ahead! Time to sample!
11. Place on a pretty platter, or package them for delivery.
If you are storing these little beauties, do so in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week. Serve at room temperature.
Truffles can be frozen for up to 2 months.
