Ingredients
Scale
Strawberry Cream Filling
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and pureed
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Coating
- 8 ounces high-quality chocolate (dark or milk), chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberry puree: Wash and hull fresh strawberries, then blend them until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine sieve to remove seeds and achieve a silky texture.
- Make the cream filling: In a saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream and butter over low heat until the butter melts. Remove from heat and whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully combined. Stir in the strained strawberry puree, mixing well. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
- Form the cream centers: Transfer the cooled strawberry cream mixture into a piping bag or use a spoon to form small, uniform dollops on parchment-lined trays. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours until the dollops are firm enough to handle.
- Melt the chocolate: Finely chop the chocolate and melt it using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring regularly until smooth and glossy. Avoid overheating to prevent seizing.
- Coat the cream centers: Gently dip the chilled cream dollops into the melted chocolate, fully covering each piece. Place the coated chocolates back on parchment paper to allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- Chill and set: Refrigerate the coated chocolates until the chocolate shell hardens completely, sealing the creamy strawberry center inside, approximately 30 minutes.
Notes
- Ensure the strawberry puree is well strained to avoid crunchy seeds in the cream centers.
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and smooth coating.
- Allow the cream centers to firm up thoroughly to prevent melting during coating.
- Store finished chocolates in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
