Ingredients
This chocolate fudge truffle recipe is quite easy to make and requires only few ingredients. You will need dark chocolate, butter, heavy cream, and your favorite flavorings.

You will also need a double boiler, a whisk, and a spoon.
For the chocolate fudge truffle, you will need one cup of dark chocolate chips, one tablespoon of unsalted butter, and one tablespoon of heavy cream. You can also use semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips if you prefer, but the dark chocolate chips will give the truffles a richer flavor. Once you have all the ingredients, you can start making the truffles.
Instructions
To start, place the dark chocolate chips, butter, and heavy cream in a heatproof bowl or double boiler. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure that the bowl does not touch the water. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate and butter are completely melted. Once melted, remove the bowl from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Once the mixture has cooled, whisk it vigorously until it is light and fluffy. Then, spoon the mixture into small mounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the truffles to set. Finally, remove the truffles from the refrigerator and roll them in your hands to form a smooth ball. You can then roll the truffles in cocoa powder, powdered sugar, or chopped nuts if desired.
Your chocolate fudge truffles are now ready to be enjoyed! Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. If you want to make the truffles ahead of time, freeze them in an airtight container for up to three months.
Nutrition
One of the great things about this chocolate fudge truffle recipe is that it doesn't contain any added sugar. The dark chocolate chips and heavy cream provide all the sweetness you need. That being said, one truffle does contain about 80 calories and 7 grams of fat, so you should enjoy them in moderation.
This recipe is also a great way to get your daily dose of antioxidants. Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants like polyphenols, which can help protect your body from free radical damage. It also contains small amounts of vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, iron, and zinc.
