Salted Caramel Truffles
- 5 toffee pieces
- salt
- 200 g chocolate
- 100 ml double cream
- cocoa powder
- Cut each toffee into 4 pieces and put in a bowl with the salt flakes.
- Roll the toffees around so some salt flakes stick to each.
- Put the chocolate and cream in a bowl and melt in 20-second blasts in the microwave, or set over a pan of simmering water (make sure the base doesn't touch the water).
- Remove and pour into a container that will give the mixture a depth of at least 2cm (3/4 in).
- Leave to cook completely.
- Once cool, put in the fridge to chill for 2-3 hours, until the mixture is firm enough to shape.
- Using a melon baller or teaspoon, scoop out the balls.
- Push a piece of toffee into each ball and smooth over the indent.
- Roll each truffle in cocoa powder (if using your hands, dust them with cocoa powder first).
