Making your own lemon curd is easy. I have used this recipe, but reduced the sugar a little bit. :)
I served the truffles "lollipop" style, but they do soften very quickly in warm weather. In such case, simply put them in small pretty paper cases.
Based on this recipe.
Ingredients
100g white chocolate
1/4 cup home-made lemon curd
1/4 cup heavy cream
a tiny bit of orange blossom water (optional)
100g biscuit crumbs (I used my home-made biscuits and process it into finely ground in the food processor)
Method
Using a double boiler, melt the white chocolate.
Add in the lemon curd, heavy cream, orange blossom water and mix well to combine.
Place the above mixture in the freezer, and chill for 2-3 hours.
Take the mixture out of the freezer and shape into truffle-sized balls. Dust powdered sugar over your hands to stop the truffles melting around the edges.
Coat the balls with the biscuit crumbs. Put them on a baking tray covered with baking paper. If you want to make lollipops, insert the sticks into the truffle balls.
Place the whole thing in the freezer and chill overnight. Serve chill.
