Decadent Truffle-Infused Chocolate and Cheddar Snack Bites
Ingredients
- 4 ounces Meridia Truffle cheddar, grated
- 1.5 ounces Caracol milk chocolate, chopped
- 1.5 ounces Cumulus Hideaway Sauvignon Blanc
- 2 ounces Goat cheese, crumbled
- 1.5 ounces Dark chocolate, chopped
- 1.5 ounces Raspberry dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 ounce Shadow Dance Whiskey-cheddar, grated
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's up to temperature when you're ready to bake.
2. Prepare Ingredients
Grate the Meridia Truffle cheddar and Shadow Dance Whiskey-cheddar. Chop the Caracol milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and raspberry dark chocolate into small, uniform pieces. Crumble the goat cheese and set all ingredients aside.
3. Combine Cheeses and Chocolates
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the grated Meridia Truffle cheddar, crumbled goat cheese, and grated Shadow Dance Whiskey-cheddar. Add the chopped Caracol milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Mix the ingredients lightly with your fingers to ensure an even distribution.
4. Add Wine for Flavor
Slowly pour the Cumulus Hideaway Sauvignon Blanc into the mixing bowl, stirring gently to incorporate it throughout the cheese and chocolate mixture. The wine will enhance the overall flavor and ensure the mixture remains moist.
5. Form Snack Bites
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a small spoon or your hands, form the mixture into one-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring enough space between each for even cooking.
6. Bake
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the chocolates have melted slightly, forming a cohesive snack bite.
7. Cool and Apply Finishing Touch
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Immediately sprinkle the chopped raspberry dark chocolate over the hot snack bites, allowing the residual heat to gently melt them for a nuanced flavor addition. Let them cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
