Your taste buds are about to be transported on a culinary journey around the world. First stop: Brazil. Can you hear the samba playing as you taste the nectar of the passion fruit? Next stop: Provence. Imagine the sun-kissed fields of France as you savor the subtle notes of lavender. Final stop: Mexico. A slow heat ascends as a smokiness envelops your palette. It’s the revered spice of the Aztecs: chipotle. All of this infused into the finest dark chocolate experience ever. These truffles are melt-in-your-mouth delicious! You can’t eat just one. <br />Note: Since fresh passion fruit is not easy to find, I used the liquid concentrate to make these truffles. It’s delicious and saves you the added labor of separating the passion fruit juice from the seeds. I used a product from Brazil called “Dafruta Passion Fruit Liquid Concentrate”. I’ve purchased the juice at many major supermarkets (look in the Latin American section) and online. Search online for “Dafruta Passion Fruit” and you will find lots of options. Other delicious ways to use the juice: add to iced or hot tea with honey, cocktails, Greek yogurt with honey (my favorite!), and juice, of course.
