Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 5 Egg Yolks
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Fresh Lime Juice
  • 6 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter cubed into small chunks
  • A Pinch of Salt
  • 2 Teaspoon Lime Zest
  • 1 ¼ Cup White Chocolate Almond Bark divided

Method
 

Lime Filling
  1. In a large saucepan, whisk egg yolks, eggs, and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in lime juice and salt.
  2. Place the saucepan over low to medium heat. Stir constantly until the temperature of the mixture reaches 185° Fahrenheit and thickens.
  3. Remove the mixture from the heat and whisk in the butter.
  4. Pour mixture through strainer and gently stir in lime zest. Let cool at room temperature. Wrap and chill.
The Chocolates
  1. Melt 1 cup white chocolate almond bark in the microwave. Mix in dye Place a small amount of chocolate in each cavity of the mold. Gently manipulate the mold to get the chocolate to cover all the sides of the mold. There will be chocolate leftover. Flip upside down to remove any excess chocolate. Let set.
  2. Fill each cavity with lime filling, stop just short of the top of the mold. Set in freezer to get the filling slightly hardened.
  3. Remelt the extra white chocolate almond bark from the previous step, fill in the tops of the molds making sure everything is covered. Let set.
  4. Turn out the truffles, melt the remaining white chocolate and drizzle over the top to get a striped pattern. Let set.
  5. Enjoy!
