Instructions:
- Combine ingredients:
In a heatproof bowl, mix the white chocolate chips and unsalted butter. - Heat cream:
Simmer the heavy cream until hot, then pour it over the chocolate mixture, stirring until smooth and fully combined. - Add lemon zest and juice:
Blend in the lemon zest and freshly squeezed lemon juice until well incorporated. - Gradually add powdered sugar:
Slowly mix in the powdered sugar, ensuring the mixture stays smooth and creamy. If desired, add a few drops of yellow food coloring for a vibrant, lemony hue. - Chill the mixture:
Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 2 hours, allowing it to firm up. - Shape into balls:
Once firm, scoop the mixture and roll it into small truffle-sized balls. - Coat in powdered sugar:
Roll each truffle in powdered sugar to give it a delightful, snowy finish. - Refrigerate:
Place the coated truffles in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to help them set.
These lemon truffles are a refreshing, tangy treat that melts in your mouth. Perfect for gifts or as a special indulgence!
