Special plastic molds for truffles
Coconut fat
Your preferred chocolate (covering, bitter, semi-bitter, or white)
Grease the molds with coconut fat using a clean and dry sponge
Remove any excess fat with a clean cloth
Set aside
Melt the chocolate according to the basic recipe
Pour the chocolate quickly into the molds, rotating the pan over them
Scrape off any excess with a metal spatula or hard wooden spoon
Tap the mold gently on the countertop to avoid bubbles
Place the mold in the freezer
While the chocolate is still soft, the bottom of the mold will be dark
When it's firm, ready to be demolded, the chocolate will come loose from the bottom of the mold, leaving it clear
The time in the freezer varies greatly (10-20 minutes)
You should check frequently if the chocolate has come loose from the bottom, until you acquire the necessary practice for the required time
Demold the truffles, gently tapping the mold on a flat surface covered with a dry dish towel
Place the truffles on a paper plate or over paper and let them sit for a bit
Do not store the truffles in the refrigerator; instead, keep them at room temperature in a cool place
