- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 1 1/2 hours (including chilling time)
- Yield: 12-14 1-inch truffles 1x
- Category: Chocolate

Ingredients
130 grams dark chocolate couverture (4 1/2 ounces, or about 1 cup)
60 milliliters red wine (1/4 cup)
30 milliliters whipping cream (2 tablespoons)
Cocoa powder, for rolling the truffles
Instructions
Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment.
Melt dark chocolate over a bain marie or double boiler.
Meanwhile, combine red wine and whipping cream in a small saucepan and warm over medium-low heat. Do not boil.
Whisk the warm cream mixture into the melted chocolate. Remove from heat.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least one hour, or until ganache is firm enough to scoop.
Use a melon baller or small cookie scoop to portion the chilled ganache, using your hands to smooth and shape each portion into a round ball. Roll in cocoa powder. Place on prepared tray. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until ready to serve.
Roll chilled truffles in a second coating of cocoa powder prior to serving. Serve in paper truffle cups.
Store leftover red wine truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Re-roll in cocoa powder and allow to stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes prior to serving.
Notes
You can make your truffles in any size you’d like. I made mine about 1 inch in diameter.
