2.Divide the shortbread, fruit and orange zest between the bowls, stir, then chill for at least 4 hrs until firm.











3.Using a teaspoon, scoop out the mixtures and form into small truffles. Sift the icing sugar onto a plate and roll the white chocolate truffles in it. Do the same with the cocoa and the dark chocolate truffles, then chill until needed. Can be made up to a day ahead.
Ingredients


225g good-quality dark chocolate, broken into small pieces


175ml double cream


Icing sugar, to dust


Cocoa powder, sifted, to roll


Method


Place chocolate in a large mixing bowl. Place cream in a saucepan and bring to the boil, then immediately pour over chocolate. Mix until chocolate has melted. (This is called a ganache.) Set aside at room temperature, covered, for 1-1 1/2 hours to cool completely and until set. Use a teaspoon to spoon out bite-sized pieces. Dust your hands with a little icing sugar to prevent them sticking and roll mixture into balls in the palm of your hands. Roll in cocoa; serve with coffee
Food Network has some Amazing easy directions.
I don't have one..,but if you have a Trader Joes' in your area, they have the best by far truffles for about 4.99 for a 6oz box!!! They are amazing!!
