Step into a festive Italian holiday with our "Yuletide Sweets" gift box. This charming collection is filled with sweet Italian classics: the crunchy Amaretti in a festive tin, a delightful mini Panettone bursting with chocolate, the elegant Dolci & Gabbana Torroncini, and exquisite chocolate bars from Majani—one with cocoa and almond paste, another creamy milk chocolate, and a third with rich dark chocolate and candied orange peels. It's a perfect way to send a taste of Italian sweetness to someone special this holiday season.

Panettone Chocolate Orange Truffles

Ingredients:

  • 1 Panettoni Mini Chocolate, crumbled
  • 3.5 oz Majani Dark Chocolate with Candied Orange Peels
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • Cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Crumble the chocolate Panettoni into a bowl until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  2. Break the Majani Dark Chocolate with Candied Orange Peels into pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
  3. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it starts to simmer. Then, pour it over the chocolate pieces, stirring gently until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  4. Add the orange zest to the melted chocolate mixture and mix thoroughly.
  5. Fold the chocolate mixture into the crumbled Panettoni until well combined.
  6. Cool the mixture in the refrigerator for about 1 hour, or until it's firm enough to handle.
  7. Once chilled and firm, scoop out teaspoonfuls of the mixture and roll between your palms to form small balls.
  8. Roll each truffle in cocoa powder to coat, tapping off any excess.
  9. Place the finished truffles on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate again for at least 30 minutes to set.
  10. Serve the truffles in a decorative box or on a platter as an elegant end to your holiday meal.
