How to Make Buffalo Truffle Loaf

  1. Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving overhang on the sides to lift out the loaf later.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream and 3 large egg yolks until light and frothy.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 12 ounces (340g) semi-sweet chocolate, 1/4 cup (50ml) light corn syrup, and 4 tablespoons (57g) unsalted butter, stirring frequently until smooth and melted.
  4. Gradually whisk the egg yolk mixture into the melted chocolate mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat immediately.
  5. Let the chocolate mixture cool completely to room temperature. This is crucial for preventing a grainy texture.
  6. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream, 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer until soft peaks form.
  7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the loaf to set completely.
  10. Once chilled, lift the loaf from the pan using the plastic wrap overhang. Slice and serve chilled, garnished with whipped cream (optional).
