Ingredients

Tools

  • Cutting board
  • Knife
  • Bowl

Preparation

  • Take the Panettone without candied fruits and raisins and cut some slices for a total of 7 oz.

  • I don’t like neither raisins nor candied fruits and having a classic panettone at home, I removed both raisins and candied fruits.

  • If you like them, you can leave them, otherwise remove them! Crumble the panettone into many small pieces and put them in a bowl.

  • Add a tablespoon of sweetened coffee, a vial of Rum, the Robiola (or Philadelphia) and 2.8 oz of Nutella.

  • Mix well with your hands until everything is uniform and you get a compact and well-mixed dough.

  • Now take a small portion from the dough with your hands, flatten it and put some Nutella in the center.

  • Close it and shape it into a ball with the palms of your hands. Continue in the same way until you finish the dough.

  • Put the balls in the fridge for about 20 minutes. After the time has passed, take them out and roll them in unsweetened cocoa powder.

  • Et voilà, your panettone truffles with Nutella and Robiola are ready to be enjoyed!! Keep them in the fridge until just before serving.

  • If you want, you can replace the Robiola with mascarpone or Philadelphia.

  • You can also use ricotta, but it must be fresh, DRY, and sifted to prevent it from releasing whey.

  • Mela Cannella e Fantasia wishes you a peaceful Christmas Eve and a Christmas full of peace, love, and good food! Happy holidays to everyone!
