Ingredients
- 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 100ml heavy cream
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Cocoa powder for coating
Cooking Instructions
- Chop the dark chocolate finely and place in a heatproof bowl. The finer the better. Think ninja warrior chopping.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Stirring is optional but dance moves are encouraged.
- Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Avoid taste-testing at this stage. Wait for 1 minute to let the magic happen.
- Add the unsalted butter and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir the mixture gently until smooth and glossy. Now you can taste. Maybe.
- Cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up. Patience is a virtue, or so they say.
- Once firm, use a melon baller or small spoon to scoop out bite-sized portions. Shape into adorable little balls with your hands. Channel your inner sculptor!
- Roll each bonbon in cocoa powder until lushly coated. Your masterpiece is ready!
Suggestions
- Alternative Ingredients: Swap dark chocolate with milk chocolate for a sweeter touch or use flavored chocolate (orange, mint) for a twist.
- Garnishing Options: Roll bonbons in powdered sugar, finely chopped nuts, or shredded coconut instead of cocoa powder for extra flair.
- Cooking Tips: Make sure to chop chocolate finely for smoother melting. No pressure, just ninja skills.
