• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

Hot Honey TRUFF Sauce

• ½ cup TRUFF Buffalo Sauce

• 2–3 tablespoons hot honey

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 1 teaspoon TRUFF Black Truffle Oil (optional, for extra truffle flavor)

• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or fresh lemon juice (optional, to brighten the sauce)

Garnish

• Freshly grated Parmesan

Instructions

1. Prepare the wings

Pat the wings very dry with paper towels.

In a large bowl, combine:

• Baking powder

• Salt

• Pepper

• Garlic powder

• Onion powder

• Smoked paprika

Toss the wings until evenly coated.

2. Bake or air fry

Oven:

• Preheat to 425°F (220°C).

• Arrange wings on a wire rack over a foil-lined baking sheet.

• Bake for 45–50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skin is crisp and golden.

Air Fryer:

• Cook at 380°F for 18 minutes.

• Flip the wings.

• Increase to 400°F and cook another 4–7 minutes until crispy.

3. Make the sauce

In a small saucepan over low heat:

1. Melt the butter.

2. Whisk in the TRUFF Buffalo Sauce.

3. Stir in the hot honey, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder.

4. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes.

5. Remove from the heat and stir in the truffle oil (if using) and vinegar or lemon juice.

4. Toss

Transfer the hot wings to a large bowl, pour the warm sauce over them, and toss until every wing is evenly coated.

5. Finish

Top with:

• A light sprinkle of Parmesan

• Chopped chives or parsley

• Fresh cracked black pepper

• A final drizzle of hot honey

Serving Suggestions

These wings pair especially well with:

• Crispy truffle fries

• Ranch or blue cheese dressing

• Creamy mac and cheese

• Celery and carrot sticks

• Dill pickles for a tangy contrast

Tips for the Best Flavor

• TRUFF Buffalo Sauce already has a rich truffle flavor, so start with 2 tablespoons of hot honey and taste before adding more.

• For extra-crispy wings, refrigerate the seasoned wings uncovered for 1–4 hours before cooking.

• If you like a thicker, stickier glaze, return the sauced wings to the oven or air fryer for 2–3 minutes before serving.
