Zubereitung von Balsamic Chocolate Truffles
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar and 1/2 cup pitted cherries. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the cherries have softened slightly.
- Remove the cherries from the pan and discard. Set the balsamic vinegar aside to cool completely.
- Prepare a double boiler or use a heat-safe bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water).
- Add 8 ounces of finely chopped dark chocolate and 1/4 cup heavy cream to the double boiler. Stir gently until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove from heat and pour the melted chocolate into a medium bowl. Stir in the cooled balsamic vinegar until well combined.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm but still slightly pliable.
- Let the truffle mixture sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften slightly. This will make it easier to roll.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the chocolate mixture into 1-inch balls.
- Pour 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder into a shallow dish. Roll each truffle ball in the cocoa powder to coat evenly.
- Place the coated truffles on the prepared baking sheet. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
