Step 10Finishing the Truffles: Dipping
After all that, the final step is somewhat anticlimactic.
Temper some chocolate.
Dip the centers.
If additional finishing is desirable (say, if you wanted to press a coffee bean into the top), do it before the chocolate sets.
Leave them alone for 24 hours.
It's important to not disturb the dipped and finished chocolate for a while, so that the cocoa butter is allowed to crystallize fully. Touching or moving the chocolates will almost always result in unsightly defects.
Remember to share!
