Preparation method

Ingredients overview

  • 200 g dark chocolate 70%
  • 200 ml whipping cream 32% fat
  • 90 g unsalted butter 82% fat
  • 60 g shelled unsalted pistachios
  • 22 g cane sugar
  • 16 g instant coffee
1

Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie and stir in the instant coffee until completely dissolved. Whip the whipping cream together with the sugar until you get an airy consistency. Carefully fold the melted chocolate (slightly cooled) into the whipped cream using a spatula.

2

Using a mixer, gradually incorporate the soft butter cut into small pieces into the chocolate mixture. You will obtain a mass similar to a buttercream. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 12 hours in a sealed container.

3

Chop the pistachios into small pieces. From the hardened mixture, take small portions with a teaspoon and form balls with your palms (slightly moistened with cold water to prevent sticking). Immediately roll each truffle through the chopped pistachios to coat it evenly. Store in the refrigerator until serving.

Chef's tip

Moisten your palms with cold water before shaping the truffles to prevent the chocolate from melting from the heat of your hands.
