Chocolate Rice Truffles


My family loves sweet desserts. Each time after we had a meal, we will always look for something sweet to munch, otherwise the meal is not considered complete. It can be just a stick of Kit Kat, a small block of chocolate or a piece of left over cake.

Just few days ago, right after lunch, as usual my kids will open the fridge and look for desserts. Much to their dismay, not a single sweet dessert is left for them. So, in order to fulfill the craving, we all agreed to make some quick-mix truffle. I made these within half an hour with the eager help from Ben and Tim and as you can imagine, 1/3 of the portion has actually eaten before we can fridge it till evening.

These truffles were modified by Ben and Tim. They preferred chocolate rice. I prefer the cocoa powdered ones. Ck….. Loves them all!


Recipe for Chocolate Rice Truffles

Ingredients:

8 pieces Digestives biscuits

150 grams Vochelle cooking chocolate bar

50 grams butter

40 grams icing sugar

Cocoa powder

Chocolate rice

Small cup-cakes casing

Method:

Crush Digestives biscuits in a plastic bag until fine, set aside

Melt chocolate in microwave for about 40 seconds, add in butter then melt another 15 seconds

In a mixing bowl, pour in crushed Digestives biscuits, icing sugar and mix until even. Add in melted chocolate and butter; mix well till form even dough.

Roll a spoonful of dough, like a marble size. Coat it with cocoa powder or chocolate rice.

Place each truffle in a paper cup-cake casing and fridge till harden. Serve when it’s chill.
