How do you make white chocolate truffles?
I want to make some chocolate truffles for my friend’s birthday because she’s completely in love with them. I have some white chocolate chips handy and when i looked up how to make chocolate truffles, none of them mentioned if I could use white chocolate chips instead.
So my question is, can you just substitute white chocolate for bittersweet in a regular recipe? And if not, then how do you make white chocolate truffles?

Since white chocolate is creamier and has more fat, if you substitute white chocolate chips for bittersweet chocolate, use less heavy cream. I would reccommend addnig a raspberry, the acidity with the sweetness of the white chocolate is a very special contrast.
If you want to do it the right way, purchase a fine tablet of white chocolate.
