Coffee Powder Truffles Recipes

CHOCOLATE COFFEE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Add the chocolate and cream to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
• Stir in the butter and coffee granules until fully melted and combined.
• Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate overnight or until the ganache is completely set.
• Line a large baking tray with parchment or wax paper.
• Roll the mixture into 1oz balls, and place them onto the prepared baking tray. If the chocolate becomes too sticky to roll, coat your hands in cocoa powder to make the process easier.
• Freeze the truffles for 30 minutes.
• Add the chocolate and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
• Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, place back onto the lined baking tray, and refrigerate until set.

EASY DECADENT TRUFFLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until well blended. Stir in melted chocolate and vanilla until no streaks remain. Refrigerate for about 1 hour. Shape into 1 inch balls.

ESPRESSO COFFEE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• In a saucepan slowly bring the cream to the boil. Turn off the heat and add the coffee and chocolate. Stir with a whisk until the mixture becomes smooth and the chocolate has melted. The liquid should have become slightly lighter and shinier at this stage. Pour into a jug and leave to cool for about 2 hours or until it has come down to room temperature. See Cook's note*.
• Beat the mixture with an electric whisk for about 1 minute or until it changes color.
• Line a square plastic container with baking paper and pour the chocolate mixture into it. Leave to set in the refrigerator for 2 hours. You can test this by pressing the top with your fingers. Run a spatula around the edges and lift the chocolate on the baking paper out of the dish and swiftly cut it lengthways into even strips of about 2/3-inch. Then cut these into cubes. Put cocoa powder into a flat dish and roll the cubes in it, making sure that they are well coated. The truffles can be kept for about 2 weeks.
