Truffle Butterbings

Summer Truffle, Salted Caramel and Balinese Ganache Butterbings

It's been a while since I moved to the States, and this was the last thing I made back in my country. Thinking about them still warms my icy, black heart.

Butterbings are (unsurprisingly) a fairly new thing in Australia, but not too out of the way in their concept. Usually a filling/ buttercream sandwiched between 2 brownie cookies, they're fairly heavy but totally worth the 5k run after. The success of these beauties relies on getting the cookies as dense as brownies and slightly crusty on the outside, never forgoing their fudginess.

Fortunately for me, I had some summer truffles in brine that I could not resist shaving on top of what seems to be my favorite combination in the world- salted caramel, ganache and brownies. Balinese chocolate definitely makes it all the more special for me with its distinct regional flavors.
