🍯 Ingredients
- 8 oz (225g) white chocolate, finely chopped (use high-quality chocolate bars, not chips)
- ¼ cup (60ml) heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon honey (preferably wildflower or lavender honey)
- ½ teaspoon dried culinary lavender buds (make sure they’re food-grade)
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter (optional, for extra silkiness)
- Pinch of salt
- Powdered sugar, shredded coconut, or white chocolate shavings – for coating
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Infuse the Cream
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat until just beginning to simmer.
Add lavender buds, stir, and remove from heat.
Let steep for 10 minutes to infuse the floral flavor.
Strain the cream through a fine mesh sieve to remove the lavender.
Step 2: Melt the Chocolate
Place the chopped white chocolate and butter (if using) in a heatproof bowl.
Reheat the lavender-infused cream gently until warm, then pour it over the chocolate.
Let sit for 2–3 minutes, then stir until smooth and melted.
If the chocolate doesn’t melt completely, microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring each time until silky smooth.
Step 3: Add Honey and Salt
Stir in honey and a pinch of salt until the mixture is glossy and well combined.
Step 4: Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until the mixture (ganache) is firm enough to scoop.
Step 5: Form the Truffles
Using a small cookie scoop or teaspoon, portion the chilled ganache and roll into 1-inch balls.
If the mixture is sticky, dust your hands with powdered sugar or chill the ganache briefly again.
Step 6: Coat the Truffles
Roll each truffle in your desired coating:
- Powdered sugar – for a soft, snowy look.
- Shredded coconut – for a rustic, textured coating.
- White chocolate drizzle – for a glossy, professional finish.
Place the finished truffles on parchment paper and refrigerate until set (about 30 minutes).
🌼 Optional Variations
🍫 Lavender Lemon Truffles: Add ½ teaspoon lemon zest to the ganache for a citrusy lift.
🍯 Salted Honey Truffles: Sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt on top for contrast.
🍵 Lavender Matcha Truffles: Add ¼ teaspoon matcha powder for an earthy twist and soft green hue.
🌷 Rose Honey Truffles: Replace lavender with dried edible rose petals for a romantic variation.
🧊 Storage
- Refrigerator: Store truffles in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- Freezer: Freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
Serve slightly chilled for a firmer texture or at room temperature for a softer, melt-away experience.
