Walnut Dark Chocolate Truffles is a Indian dessert recipe that takes about 30 min from start to finish and serves 20. It calls for 6 ingredients across 5 steps, and is rated easy. A serving works out at around 139 kcal with roughly 2 g of protein. Filed under gluten free, lacto ovo vegetarian, vegetarian and gluten-free.
First, coarsely chop the walnuts. If you're using a food processor, be careful not to over-process them into a fine meal; you want some texture.
Separately, melt the 70% dark chocolate and butter together over a double boiler until smooth and glossy.
Place the truffle mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes, or until it has firmed up enough to handle.
Once chilled, use your hands to roll the mixture into bite-sized balls. Roll each truffle in the remaining coarsely chopped walnuts, ensuring it's well coated, then place it onto a tray lined with baking paper. Continue until all the mixture is used.
Chill the formed truffles in the fridge for at least 1 hour to set completely.
