Step 1 – Melt
Melt the Toblerone chocolate, butter and cream in a microwave-safe bowl for 2-3 minutes on 50% power (stirring every 30 seconds).
Step 2 – Chill
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 6 hours (MINIMUM).
Note: A MINIMUM of 6 hours is required to chill the mixture. Any less than this and your truffle mixture will be too soft to roll in to balls.
Step 3 – Roll
Roll 2 teaspoonfuls of mixture into a ball.
Roll ball in the crushed hazelnuts to coat well. Continue until all of the mixture has been used.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
