Ingredients List:
* 3.5 grams high-quality cannabis flower
* 1/2 cup Organic Refined Coconut Oil (you will use 2 tbsp for this recipe)
* 8 oz Valrhona Ivoire White Chocolate Feves
* 1/4 cup heavy coconut cream (chilled)
* 2 tbsp Passion Fruit Purée
* 1/2 tsp sunflower lecithin
* 1/2 cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut (for coating)
* Pinch of sea salt
Decarboxylation Instructions:
* Preheat oven to 240°F.
* Break flower into uniform small pieces.
* Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
* Bake for 40 minutes.
* Allow to cool completely.
Infusion Instructions:
* Combine coconut oil and decarboxylated flower in a small jar.
* Maintain a 160°F water bath for 2 hours.
* Strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
* Measure exactly 2 tablespoons of this infused oil for the recipe.
Preparation Instructions:
* Gently melt the white chocolate feves in a double boiler over low heat until smooth.
* In a separate small saucepan, lightly warm the coconut cream and passion fruit purée (do not boil).
* Whisk the 2 tablespoons of infused coconut oil and sunflower lecithin into the warm cream mixture.
* Slowly pour the cream mixture into the melted white chocolate, stirring gently from the center outward to create a smooth emulsion.
* Stir in a pinch of sea salt.
* Cover the ganache with plastic wrap (touching the surface) and refrigerate for 4-6 hours until firm enough to scoop.
* Using a small melon baller or teaspoon, portion the ganache and roll into 1-inch spheres.
* Immediately roll each sphere in the shredded coconut until fully coated.
* Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Chef Tips:
To ensure a professional finish, keep your hands cool while rolling the truffles to prevent the ganache from melting. If the mixture becomes too soft, return it to the freezer for 5 minutes. For a more intense tropical aesthetic, mix a teaspoon of crushed freeze-dried mango into the shredded coconut coating for a pop of color and flavor.
