Explosive Candy Truffles

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Blogger HowSweetEats Infuses Pop Rocks into Chocolate Truffles

— July 5, 2014 — Lifestyle
These delicious chocolate truffles by blogger HowSweetEats are rolled in a layer of explosive Pop Rocks candy for an added crackling taste. You can make these simple truffles at home if you're looking for a fast dessert to serve to your guests.

To make these homemade truffles all you need is milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, heavy cream, vanilla extract and several packs of colorful Pop Rocks. Begin by melting the chocolate with the heavy cream and vanilla to add that extra richness to the cocoa flavor. You can begin to roll the chocolate into tiny balls once the chocolate has cooled to a ganache-like consistency. Then roll each truffle ball in a layer of Pop Rocks for an added crunch and pop in every truffle bite.
