Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest Freshly grated for best flavor
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice Freshly squeezed
  • Powdered sugar For dusting

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all the ingredients and get your work surface ready.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  3. Once melted, stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice until well combined.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1-2 hours until the mixture has set and is firm enough to handle.
Assembly
  1. Once chilled, use a small scoop or spoon to portion out the mixture. Roll the portions between your palms to form bite-sized balls.
  2. Roll each truffle in powdered sugar for a lovely finish. Place them on a baking sheet and let them chill for another 30 minutes.
