Course Dessert
Prep Time 30 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 20 truffles

Ingredients

  • 1 cup finely crushed shredded wheat cereal
  • ½ cup pistachio cream or pistachio spread
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 12 ounces milk or dark chocolate, melted
  • Crushed pistachios, optional for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add the finely crushed shredded wheat to a mixing bowl. Make sure it is crushed into small pieces for the best texture.

  2. Stir in the pistachio cream and melted butter until the mixture is fully combined and slightly sticky.

  3. Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll into evenly sized balls. Place them on a parchment lined tray.

  4. Transfer the tray to the freezer and chill for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the truffle centers are firm.

  5. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, coating completely. Let any excess chocolate drip off.

  6. Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment lined tray and sprinkle with crushed pistachios if desired.

  7. Refrigerate or let sit at room temperature until the chocolate is fully set, then serve.

  • Freeze the centers before dipping for easier coating
  • Let excess chocolate drip off for a smooth finish
  • Store in the fridge for up to 7 days or freeze for up to 2 months
