Ingredients
- 50 grams (scant 2 ounces) Vietnamese cinnamon chips
- 2 tablespoons ancho chili powder
- 15 grams (1/2-ounce, about 2 tablespoons) whole allspice berries
- 1 liter (about 4 cups) heavy cream
- 700 grams (1 pound 9 ounces) 60 percent dark chocolate, uniformly chopped
- 300 grams (11 ounces) milk chocolate, uniformly chopped
- 40 grams (1.5 ounces about 3 tablespoons) butter, room temperature, cut into uniform pieces
Instructions
- Dry Roast the spices in a saute pan over medium-high heat until you can smell the perfume from the spices. Once the spices have been roasted for a bit, then add the heavy cream. Remove from heat and steep 1 hour. Strain out the spices.
- Reheat the strained cream and pour the warm cream over the chocolate. Stir with a spatula to mix the chocolate completely until melted and combined. Once the chocolate is uniform in texture, add the butter and stir until well combined.
- Pour into another bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. Place in a pastry bag and form little blobs onto a tray. Refrigerate until firm to the touch. Remove and roll to desired form.

I made these a few days ago. I was looking at truffle recipes and came across this one. Being a Bobby Flay fan, of course had to try this. Really loved it. Spicey and chocolaty, so delicious. BTW I rolled some in different things as well, coconut, nuts etc. I loved em all. Thanks Bobby and Food network.
As for you folks who can’t afford to buy these ingredients or they are too hard for you to go to 3 min. extra trouble for a truly exciting taste, or you can’t wait until the recipe is posted and haven’t even made it. I agree with another post. Get a life and quit being jealous of Bobby Flay.

As a very accomplished “chocolatier” in my own right, I have to congratulate Bobby on this truffle recipe. I happened to see this show today, and immediately got hit with the “chocolate urge” to create another chocolate creation. Truffles are one of my specialties, and this savory and sweet medley is perfect.
IT LOOKS LIKE CHCOLATE HEAVEN! BOBBY

I just made these yesterday for a party and they were fantastic. I do like to read the reviews to look at other cooks reactions/substitutions/notes on a recipe. I choose to block out the negative ones. You know who is real and who is anonymous and just wants to bash. Bobby Flay is a fantastic chef, and I trust him more than any anonymous post. You gotta try these!
These were really good. I’m sorry that some people posted just 1 star because the recipe wasn’t up yet. If you have not tried the recipe—Don’t rate it!!!!!
to all of you who rated without actually having tested the recipe, get a life! I loved these truffles, and so did all my friends.
It’s too bad that there are so many false reviews for this recipe. You all should know that they never post a recipe BEFORE the show airs. In my experience, it usually takes 2 to 3 days from the first airing until a recipe is posted. This is normally the way it’s done to accomodate the various time zones/airing delays across the USA. Learn from your mistake and don’t mess up reviews for other recipes.
I would love to have a review but YOU would have to post it 1st. I’m going to watch the Throwdown and I will tell you what I think of the show but there isn’t any recipe for me to see…..
Obviously, the time is not a factor.
Maybe you really don’t want to hear from us.

I cannot review this recipe because all I get is a blank page. I’ve even turned off my firewall and there’s still no recipe. If you don’t want to share the thing, then just say this recipe is being withheld. Last time I try anything from Flay!
