Ingredients
(230g) 8.1oz dark couverture chocolate, melted
1 tablespoon (20g) corn syrup
195ml heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoon (18g) unsalted butter
Directions
Start by melting your chocolate in a bowl in the microwave, in 10-second increments so it doesn’t burn.
Combine your corn syrup and cream into a pot and bring to a boil.
In thirds, stir the cream into the melted chocolate using a spatula. On the last third, fully emulsify the chocolate and cream together without over-mixing. You want to achieve a glossy mixture.
Set aside and allow the ganache to drop in temperature to 40° C.
Once the ganache is at 40° C or below, whisk in butter.
Cover with plastic wrap and allow the ganache to be slightly set.
Then transfer to a piping bag. On a lined tray with parchment, pipe mini kisses. Allow the ganache to be fully set. Then roll each chocolate kiss into a ball
In a large bowl add a quarter cup of cocoa powder, take each truffle and in a circular motion with the bowl roll the truffles to coat. Remove the truffle and repeat the process.
