Nutella Chocolate Bon Bons
Author: 
Recipe type: Dessert
 
Ingredients
  • 6 oz Lindt Milk Chocolate with chopped hazelnut
  • 4 oz of dark chocolate with chopped almonds
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup Nutella
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup crushed unsalted butter biscuits
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
Instructions
  1. In a bowl combine chocolate pieces, cream, Nutella and butter.
  2. Place the bowl over a another bowl of barely simmering hot water.Make sure the bottom does not touch the water. (If you have a double boiler, go ahead and use it).
  3. Melt until it forms a smooth paste.
  4. Make sure there are no lumps.
  5. Take it off the heat, and keep aside for 10 minutes.
  6. Add vanilla essence.
  7. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.
  8. Crush butter biscuits into coarse crumbs. (You can put it in a ziploc and roll a rolling pin over it. I used my fingers.)
  9. Line a tray with parchment paper.
  10. Take out the chocolate paste. It should now b semi hard but pliable enough. If it is too hard, set it on the counter for about 15 minutes. It should soften enough to work with.
  11. Scoop out a small portion and roll it gently between your palms and fingers, shaping into a small ball.
  12. Roll it over the biscuit crumbs.
  13. Place the balls over parchment lined tray.
  14. Refrigerate the truffles/bon bons till you are ready to use.
