Perfect for special occasions or a delightful treat to enjoy at home, these truffles are a fusion of creamy white chocolate, crunchy pistachios, and the tropical essence of dried coconut.

Ingredients:

1 cup white chocolate
230g
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
72g
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2g
1/2 cup pistachio nuts
72g
1/3 cup dried coconut meat
50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pistachios and Coconut:
- Finely chop the pistachio nuts and place them in a bowl.
- Place the dried coconut meat in a food processor and pulse until finely shredded. Set aside in a separate bowl.
2. Melt the White Chocolate:
- Break the white chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
- Set up a double boiler by placing the bowl over a pot of simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
3. Create the Ganache:
- Heat the heavy whipping cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just starts to simmer, then remove it from the heat.
- Pour the hot cream over the melted white chocolate and stir gently until smooth and fully combined.
- Add the vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until incorporated.
4. Chill the Ganache:
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
5. Form the Truffles:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use a small spoon or a melon baller to scoop out portions of the ganache. Roll each portion into a ball between your hands.
6. Coat the Truffles:
- Roll each truffle first in the chopped pistachios, pressing gently so the nuts adhere well.
- Then roll the truffles in the shredded coconut, ensuring they are well-coated.
7. Set the Truffles:
- Place the coated truffles on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the truffles for an additional 30 minutes to let them set fully.
8. Serve and Store:
- Serve the white chocolate pistachio truffles chilled or at room temperature.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Tips:

- Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and texture.

- Finely chop the pistachio nuts and dried coconut meat to ensure an even distribution throughout the truffles.

- If the mixture is too soft to roll into balls, chill it in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes until it firms up.

- For extra flavor, lightly toast the pistachio nuts before chopping them.

- Store the truffles in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresh for longer.

- If you prefer a less sweet version, reduce the amount of white chocolate slightly and add a touch more pistachios or coconut.
