Ingredients
UnitsScale
Truffles:
8oz white chocolate (finely chopped)
1/4cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4cup dried cranberries (finely chopped)
1/4cup shelled pistachios (finely chopped)
Extra chopped cranberries and pistachios for coating (optional)
Instructions
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the heavy cream and butter until the butter melts and the mixture begins to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped white chocolate until smooth and fully melted.
Add vanilla extract, then fold in the chopped cranberries and pistachios.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop or spoon to form 1-inch balls. Roll each truffle between your hands to smooth, then roll in extra chopped cranberries and pistachios if desired.
Place on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until set.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Notes
For a festive look, roll truffles in powdered sugar or drizzle with melted white chocolate.
Use good-quality white chocolate for best results.
