Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • White chocolate for coating (optional)
  • Extra matcha powder for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gently heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until simmering. Do not boil.
  2. Place the white chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk the mixture until smooth and fully combined.
  4. Add the matcha powder and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture. Whisk until the matcha is completely incorporated and the ganache is smooth and uniformly green.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to roll into balls.
  6. Once chilled, scoop out small portions of the ganache and roll them into uniform balls using your hands.
  7. If desired, melt additional white chocolate and dip the truffles. Dust with extra matcha powder before the coating sets.
  8. Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Ensure your matcha powder is of good quality for the best flavor and color.
  • If the ganache becomes too firm to roll, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes until pliable.
  • For a smoother coating, temper the white chocolate.
