Ingredients
  

Truffle Base
  • 12 large fresh strawberries cleaned and dried
  • 2 cups chocolate brownie crumbs tightly packed
  • 3 tbsp chocolate ganache or frosting
Coating
  • 12 oz dark chocolate melting wafers
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 2 oz white chocolate for drizzle
  • 0.25 cup freeze-dried strawberries crushed

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Dipping fork

Method
 

  1. Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries; remove the green stems.
  2. In a bowl, combine brownie crumbs and ganache until it reaches a dough-like consistency.
  3. Flatten a small portion of brownie dough and wrap it completely around a strawberry.
  4. Repeat for all strawberries and chill on a parchment-lined tray for 30 minutes.
  5. Melt dark chocolate with coconut oil in 30-second bursts in the microwave until smooth.
  6. Dip each chilled truffle into the dark chocolate, coating fully, and return to the tray.
  7. Drizzle with melted white chocolate and sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried strawberries.
  8. Allow to set completely in the refrigerator before serving.

Notes

Use very fresh, firm strawberries for the best results. Moisture is the enemy of chocolate, so ensure fruit is bone-dry.
