Instructions:

  • In a small saucepan, apply the apple juice concentrate and put the cinnamon stick. Put it over medium heat and let it simmer until the concentrate is condensed by half (around 10-15 minutes); however, check it until you have one-third cup of concentrated apple juice.
  • In the saucepan with one-third of concentrated apple juice, place the heavy cream and bring it to a boil; stirring from time to time. In the meantime, in a large bowl, apply the chopped milk chocolate.
  • When the cream-apple juice mixture is boiling, use a strainer to strain it over the chopped chocolate. Using a whisk, gently stir the chocolate until melted, smooth, and shiny ganache.
  • Apply a layer of cling wrap on top of the ganache and place it in the fridge until firm enough to scoop and roll, around 2 hours.
  • When the mixture is firm, however not solid, take a cocoa powder just to dust your hands with and roll the ganache into one-inch balls. Repeat the process until the mixture is finished. You will get 42-48 truffles.
  • Refrigerate the truffles to set for 40 minutes. In the meantime, using a food processor/blender, crumble the graham crackers; then, rinse, peel, and grate the apple. In a small dish, combine the crumbled graham crackers and the grated apple together.
  • Then, in a microwavable safe dish melt the chocolate candy coating, stirring after each 30 sec. to prevent overheating.
  • When the coating is smooth and melted and the truffles are firm, use dipping tools or fork to dip the small truffles into the melted chocolate candy coating.
  • Arrange the dipped truffle on a foil-lined baking sheet and sprinkle the top liberally with the crushed graham crackers and apple mixture.
  • Refrigerate the truffles to set again, for about 10 minutes. Serve.

Enjoy!
