Description

Rich, vegan chocolate truffles infused with bergamot tea. A simple dessert with sophisticated flavor.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12 oz (340 g) full-fat coconut milk
  • 12 oz (340 g) high quality dark chocolate, chopped
  • 6 teabags earl grey tea
  • 4 tbsp dark cocoa powder
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Heat coconut milk in a small saucepan until it’s about to boil.
  2. Remove from heat, add tea bags, and steep for 10 minutes.
  3. Squeeze tea bags to extract excess tea and remove them.
  4. Pour coconut milk over chocolate in a medium bowl.
  5. Let sit for 20-30 seconds.
  6. Whisk from the center outward until creamy.
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  8. Scoop out hardened ganache using a tablespoon, melon baller, or cookie scoop.
  9. Quickly roll the chocolate into a ball.
  10. Set on parchment paper.
  11. Roll in cocoa powder and sprinkle with loose earl grey tea (optional).
  12. Chill until firm. Keep refrigerated until ready to eat.

Notes

  • For a stronger bergamot flavor, use 8 Earl Grey tea bags instead of 6.
  • If the ganache is too thick, microwave in short bursts until it reaches desired consistency.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days; they will keep longer in the freezer.
