Sweet, homemade chocolate truffles with figs and walnuts.
4 Fresh Figs
100g Walnuts
125g 70% Dark Chocolate
50g Salted Butter
40g Cocoa Powder
Wash the figs and remove the stalks. Chop figs into chunks. Put the walnuts and figs into a food processor and blitz until you have a coarse paste.
Melt the chocolate and butter in a bowl over a pan of boiling water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Once melted, add the fig and walnut mix. Stir well to combine.
Allow to cool, then refrigerate for a few hours until firm. Roll spoonfuls into balls about 15g each, then roll in the cocoa powder. Keep in the fridge until needed
