Ingredients

  • 2 c. white chocolate chopped
  • 1/2 c. champagne
  • 1/4 c. heavy cream
  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 c. white candy coating
  • gold sprinkles
  • 1/4 c. powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  • Place the chopped white chocolate in a medium heat safe bowl. Set aside.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of champagne into a small saucepan. Gently heat over medium heat until it simmers. Simmer for 10 minutes or until you have 1/4 cup of concentrated champagne.
  • Remove from heat and pour into a bowl.
  • Pour the heavy cream into the same saucepan and heat over
    medium heat until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over the chopped chocolate.
  • Let the heavy cream soften the chocolate for one minute. Whisk everything
    together until the chocolate is melted. The mixture should be very thick.
  • Pour the reduced champagne into the white chocolate mixture and whisk until
    smooth.
  • Add the butter and salt, and whisk until smooth.
  • Put a piece of plastic wrap on top of the filling mixture and
    refrigerate firm enough to scoop, about 1 hour.
  • If your filling isn't firm enough, add the powdered sugar and mix well. Refrigerate for another hour.
  • Once it's firm enough use a teaspoon to form 1 inch balls. Roll the balls between your hands and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Melt the white candy coating. Once melted use a fork to dip each truffle, tapping the fork on the side of the bowl to get excess candy off. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle with gold sprinkles.
  • Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up candy coating.
  • Store in refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
