As we've proven before, craft beer and chocolate is a pairing that can't get much better! Try these delectable porter chocolate truffles which you can use to make chocolate and beer filled donuts! Yes, you read that right!
To make the porter chocolate truffles, place chocolate and heavy cream in a heat-proof bowl over (not on) simmering water. Let chocolate and cream heat up for 3 minutes untouched. After 3 minutes whisk mixture until fully incorporated.
Remove bowl from heat and let cool for 20 - 30 minutes. Slowly and gently stir in porter. Pour finished mixture into a flat casserole pan. Cover the surface with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
Remove chilled truffle mixture. Using a melon-baller, scoop out chocolate rounds. Finish forming truffles by hand and place on parchment-lined bake sheet. Dust truffles with unsweetened cocoa powder to finish.
Remember!
Your palate your preference, so use any beer you enjoy.
Keep a wet towel near to wipe your hands between each truffle for ease of rolling.
