Raining truffles here… I am here with another super addictive truffle. Dulce de leche is my favorite to relish by itself, But I thought to combine this sinful dessert with chocolate and make soft and smooth truffles.After a long time, I took out my instant pot to make this delicious dessert, this creamy caramelized sauce is so sinful by itself. Traditionally it takes more than an hour to cook a perfectly colored dulce de leche, but it only took 45 mins to make these in the Instant Pot.
I have exploded a can of condensed milk years back when I tried them for the first time. Making it in the Instant Pot was a breeze.
I love making chocolate ganache truffles, so thought why not I make a dulce de leche chocolate truffles the same way. The consistency of the truffle depends on how thick your dulce de leche is. You can either coat them with cocoa pd or coat them with candy melts. These melt in the mouth, rich truffles are sinful dessert to indulge for sure. Diving into the recipe without further adieu. Am loading this post with more captures I know, I am out words and want you to virtually enjoy these yummy treats.
- Condensed Milk- 1 can
- Chocolate Chips - 2½ cups
- Heavy Cream - ½ cup
- Dulce de leche - 1 can

pd - To Coat
- Remove the label from the condensed milk, check if there is an opening or damage ( as we are cooking in a pressure cooker it can be hazardous ).
- Place the condensed milk in the instant pot.
- Pour water until the can is fully submerged in water.
- Turn the knob to seal mode on the lid of the instant pot.
- Cook in manual mode high pressure for 40 -45 minute.
- I left the can in low for 25 minutes.
- Once the pressure goes down open the lid.
- Leave it open till the water cools down.
- Remove the can and refrigerate it without opening this
becoz the tin might be hot from inside still. - After the can cool down completely open and tada dulce de leche is ready.
- In a bowl put the chocolate chips and keep it ready.

- Whisk them well till all the chocolate melts down and the mixture looks smooth shiny in texture.
- Cover the bowl with a cling wrap and refrigerate for an hour.
- After the mixture becomes firm, using a scoop or a spoon make equal sized balls.
- You can dust your hands with cocoa
pd or grease them with butter.So that it is easy to roll the balls. - Place the balls on a tray, cling wrap it and store in the fridge for 30 more minutes.
- After 30 minutes melt the candy melts in a microwave for 30 seconds or use a double boiler method to melt them.
- Take each ball and drop it in the melted chocolate. Coat them from all sides.
- Using a fork tap the balls and remove the excess chocolate.
- Place all the chocolate covered truffle on a parchment paper lined tray.
