Title: Chocolate Chevre Truffles
Categories: Five, Cheese, Chocolat
Yield: 12 Truffles
4 oz Chevre goat cheese
1/3 c Powdered, unsweetened cocoa
Extra cocoa; for rolling
1/4 c Powdered sugar;
- extra for rolling
Chocolate chips
To start, make a batch of chevre and then thoroughly chill it.
Blend chilled chevre with powdered ingredients in a food processor
or with a fork. At first it will be very dry and won't look like
it's going to come together. Usually with a little patience and
continued blending, it will form one stiff ball of chocolate goat
cheese.
Scoop small spoonfuls (1 to 2 ts ea) from this larger ball and roll
them into smaller balls.
Roll these balls in a mixture of powdered cocoa and sugar to coat.
Eat right away, refrigerate for up to 2 weeks, or freeze. If eating
later, just before you serve them, roll them in another coat of
cocoa powder and powdered sugar.
Once balls are formed, set them in a container lined with wax
paper, put a top on the container, and freeze them for 1 to 2 hours.
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Start with about
1/2 cup of chocolate chips and microwave for 30 seconds. Stir, and
microwave for another 20 to 30 seconds. Stir again until fully
melted.
Dip the frozen chevre balls into melted chocolate then set onto wax
paper to dry.
Eat now, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
