When cooking with coffee use the flavor or brand of coffee you enjoy in order to better appreciate the final product. We suggest pairing chocolate recipes like this one with our Tree Knock Coffee to enhance the chocolate finish of your Truffles. Enjoy the Truffles, and the coffee.
Ingredients
1 cup good-quality dark chocolate
3-4 teaspoons finely ground coffee
3 tablespoons salted caramel sauce
1 teaspoon coconut oil, meltedInstructions
Place chocolate in a microwave-safe medium bowl. Melt chocolate in the microwave on medium-high for in 30-second increments, stirring between each. Once chocolate is melted, Stir in ground coffee, caramel, and coconut oil.
Carefully spoon into small candy molds. Tap mold on a solid surface like a counter top a few times to release the air bubbles from the truffles. Place in fridge until solid and firmed.
If you don’t have a candy mold, these may be done with a scoop or a spoon. Scoop or spoon out a small amount and place the truffle onto a Silpat or a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
Drizzle a small amount of salted caramel sauce over each truffle for serving, if desired. You could even sprinkle some salt over the top for serving.
