How to Make Raspberry Chocolate Truffles

Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (We used Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Gluten-Free Dairy-Free)
1/4 cup whipping cream (We used Silk Heavy Whipping Cream Alternative)
3/4 cup freeze-dried raspberries

Ingredients you’ll need for the coating

1 cup chocolate chips (We used Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Gluten-Free Dairy-Free)
3 tbsp freeze-dried raspberries

Step by Step Guide

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the 2 cups of chocolate chips and the whipping cream. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each one, until the mixture is smooth and melted.

2. Blend the freeze-dried raspberries until they’re completely crushed. Stir the raspberry powder into the melted chocolate mixture.

3. Use a cookie scoop to portion out the truffle batter. Then, roll each portion into a ball about the size of a walnut.

4. In a separate bowl, melt the remaining chocolate chips until smooth. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, then sprinkle a bit of crushed freeze-dried raspberries on top for a beautiful finish.

If your truffle batter is too soft to handle, simply chill it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to firm it up before rolling. For added fun, get creative with toppings by adding extra raspberry powder or drizzling melted white chocolate for a fancier look. Store the truffles in an airtight container in the fridge, and they’ll stay fresh for up to a week—though they might not last that long!

And there you have it! These Raspberry Chocolate Truffles are perfect for holiday gifts, Valentine’s Day treats, or just to enjoy with your favorite cup of tea. They’re an indulgent and easy dessert that will have everyone coming back for more!

Now that you’ve got the recipe, it’s time to treat yourself to a little homemade luxury. Enjoy every rich, chocolatey, raspberry-filled bite!
