Square truffles are the best truffles. No one has time for rolling truffles when simply slicing them will do. Because slicing these truffles significantly cuts down the time needed to get these delicious morsels into your mouth.
The addition of cinnamon, orange zest, and Burns and McCoy Exhorresco gives the truffles a Mexican chocolate flair that elevates these to a whole new level. You might consider making a double batch to have enough to share.
Prep Time: 10 mins
Rest Time: at least 2 hours
Ingredients
8 oz bittersweet chocolate (We used a 70% cocoa baking bar. Choose a bar with less cocoa if you want sweeter truffles.)
1/2 c heavy cream
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp Burns and McCoy Exhorresco
Zest of half an orange
1 tbsp cocoa powder
Directions
1. Slice chocolate into small pieces and place in a heat-proof bowl. Set aside.
2. Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan just until hot. The cream will bubble but should not boil.
3. Pour cream over chocolate and let sit for 1 minute. Stir until mixture is smooth, but don't over work the chocolate. If chocolate is not melting, place bowl in microwave and heat at 10 second intervals.
4. Mix in vanilla, cinnamon, hot sauce, and orange zest.
5. Pour the mixture into a bread pan lined with parchment paper. Chill in the fridge for at least two hours.
6. Pull the chocolate out of the fridge, remove from pan, and let warm for a couple of minutes. Slice into 1 inch squares.
7. Place cocoa powder and truffles into a plastic bag or container, and shake to coat.

I’m Gina Kelleher, a 42‑year‑old marketing consultant in Toronto, and I’ve always been the type to research every decision down to the smallest detail. When it came to crypto, I moved at a snail’s pace: years spent gauging trends, making tiny trades, and monitoring the market minute by minute. By December 2024, I finally felt ready. I consolidated everything, $625,000 in Bitcoin onto CBEX.cx, a platform that checked every box.
One late February morning, I tried to log in and the site had simply vanished. No maintenance notice. No downtime alert. Just… gone. Initially, I chalked it up to an outage. But as hours stretched into days, the reality hit: CBEX.cx had crashed or worse, disappeared with millions of dollars in user funds. Online forums exploded with panic, and whispers of an exit scam circulated without confirmation. I was paralyzed. I immediately contacted lawyers, filed complaints, even reached out to other exchanges, but every lead fizzled out. “Crypto’s risky,” they told me. I refused to accept that as my final answer.
Then I found Morphohack Cyber, a digital forensics team with a reputation for crypto recovery. I was wary, how many times had I heard empty promises? But Morphohack’s transparency stood out. They laid out their methods clearly and outlined realistic expectations.
Within hours, they were deep in my case: tracing transaction trails, analyzing mixer patterns, and infiltrating shadow exchanges. Three days later, the call came: they’d located every Bitcoin.
By the first week of March, my full $625,000 worth of bitcoins had been restored to my wallet.
I’m more vigilant than ever now and deeply aware of crypto’s pitfalls. But thanks to Morphohack Cyber, I’ve also learned that help exists and sometimes, hope does too. If you’re facing a similar nightmare, don’t give up. Contact Morphohack via Morphohack@cyberservices. com
