Orange Marmalade Truffles Recipe
- 1 pound bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped (about 3 cups)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons orange liqueur, such as Cointreau or Grand Marnier
- 1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest, from 1 medium orange
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- Place a medium saucepan filled with about 1 inch of water over medium-low heat until just simmering.
- Place chocolate in a medium glass or metal bowl and set the bowl over (but not touching) the simmering water.
- Add cream and stir until chocolate is smooth and melted, about 8 minutes.
- Remove chocolate mixture from heat, add marmalade, liqueur, and zest, and stir until combined.
- Pour into an 8-by-8-inch dish.
- Refrigerate until firm, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
- Once set, scoop the ganache into teaspoon-size balls.
- Roll between the palms of your hands to create smooth round truffles, place on a baking sheet, and repeat with remaining ganache.
- Place cocoa powder in a shallow dish and roll truffles in the powder to coat, shaking off excess.
- Reroll truffles in additional cocoa powder before serving, if necessary.
