Chocolate Raspberry Truffles are rich, creamy bite-sized treats that blend deep chocolate flavor with a bright burst of raspberry. These elegant, no-bake truffles are perfect for gifting, parties, or a sweet indulgence at home.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped or in chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter (optional)
  • 2 tbsp raspberry jam or strained raspberry puree
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or raspberry extract (optional)
  • Cocoa powder, powdered sugar, freeze-dried raspberries (crushed), or melted chocolate (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Heat cream and butter in a small saucepan until just simmering. Remove from heat.
  2. Pour over chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and glossy.
  3. Stir in raspberry jam and vanilla or raspberry extract, if using.
  4. Cover and refrigerate mixture for 2–3 hours, until firm enough to scoop.
  5. Using a small scoop or spoon, form into 1-inch balls. Roll between your hands to smooth.
  6. Roll each truffle in cocoa powder, powdered sugar, freeze-dried raspberry dust, or dip in melted chocolate.
  7. Place coated truffles on a parchment-lined tray and chill again until set, about 20–30 minutes.

Notes

  • White chocolate can be used for a creamier variation.
  • For a boozy twist, add 1 tbsp Chambord or raspberry liqueur to the mixture (for adults only).
  • Try pressing a whole raspberry into the center before rolling for a surprise filling.
  • Truffles freeze well and can be made ahead for gifting or events.
  • For smoother coatings, dip chilled truffles in melted chocolate using a fork and tap off excess.
