Lemon Truffles

Lemon truffles are a bright, creamy delight that pair the smoothness of traditional truffles with the vibrant flavor of fresh lemon. Whether you’re making them for a party, a gift, or a simple sweet craving, these elegant little treats always make an impression. Below is everything you need to know—from the ingredients to the step-by-step method and helpful tips.


Ingredients

IngredientAmount
Fresh lemon juice2 tablespoons
White chocolate chips1 cup
Heavy cream1/4 cup
Unsalted butter2 tablespoons
Lemon zestZest of 2 lemons
Powdered sugar2 cups
Yellow food coloring (optional)A few drops

Instructions

1. Melt the Chocolate and Butter

Place the white chocolate chips and butter together in a heatproof bowl.

2. Heat the Cream

Warm the heavy cream in a small saucepan just until it begins to simmer, then pour it over the chocolate and butter mixture.

3. Stir Until Smooth

Mix gently until the chocolate and butter melt completely and the mixture becomes silky.

4. Add the Lemon Flavor

Stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest until everything is evenly blended.

5. Add the Powdered Sugar

Slowly mix in the powdered sugar to form a soft dough. If you prefer a brighter appearance, add a few drops of yellow food coloring.

6. Chill the Mixture

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.

7. Form the Truffles

Scoop out portions of the chilled mixture and roll them into small, bite-size balls.

8. Coat in Powdered Sugar

Roll each truffle lightly in powdered sugar for a clean, classic finish.

9. Chill Before Serving

Place the truffles back in the fridge for at least 30 minutes so they can fully set.
