Ingredients you’ll need

Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make these truffles. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.

White chocolate: High quality white chocolate that you enjoy eating on its own.
Double/heavy cream
Unsalted butter
Lemon extract: Do not try to use lemon juice – this will alter the overall results.

For the coating, you’ll need:

White chocolate
Vegetable oil: For thinning out the chocolate. You can also use coconut oil, if desired.

How to make Easy Lemon Truffles

To make these truffles, simply grab a large microwave-safe mixing bowl and add the white chocolate, heavy cream, butter, and lemon extract.

Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 – 4 hours (or overnight) until completely firm. OR you can place in the freezer for 2 hours.

Line a large baking tray with parchment or wax paper.

Roll the mixture into 1oz balls, and place them onto the prepared baking tray.

TIP: If the chocolate becomes too sticky to handle, roll in icing/powdered sugar to make the process easier. I like to dunk mine in icing sugar before rolling.

Freeze the truffles for 30 minutes.

For the coating, add the white chocolate and vegetable oil to a medium microwave-safe mixing bowl, and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.

Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate and place back onto the baking tray.

If desired, sprinkle with lemon zest before the chocolate sets completely.

The printable recipe card with the full list of ingredients, their measurements, and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements. Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.

Mixing bowls: I love these microwave-safe Pyrex mixing bowls.
