Panforte Ice Cream Truffles
These are pretty spectacular for any special occasion especially if you are fan of ice cream and or Siena cake. They look and are delicious!
Panforte Ice Cream Truffles
What is better than chocolate truffles or panforte itself? Well naturally, Panforte Ice Cream Truffles ... so decadent and delicious. Easy, fragrant and summery! Get it happening people!
I made these for an online Christmix class quite a few years ago. Check the video! You have to work quickly and have plenty of time to let the frozen ice cream 'truffles' really get hard!
This is like all the best flavours of traditional cold Christmas wrapped up in the lovely ice cream traditions of a hot Christmas. Best of both worlds, and who is to say you can't have ice cream in the northern hemisphere? Certainly not me. I am a year round sort of ice cream person...ask anyone.
