Something perfect for Eid: coffee chocolate truffles
What you need:
- 100ml fresh cream
- 2T ground coffee
- 250g milk chocolate (melted)
Options for Dipping:
- Cocoa powder
- Melted dark chocolate
Method
1. Bring cream and coffee to the boil in a saucepan over medium heat.
2. Remove from stove and pour into a mixing bowl.
3. Allow to stand for 5 minutes, and then strain the coffee from the cream.
4. Stirring slowly and constantly, add the melted chocolate to the coffee-infused cream. (Melt chocolate in container that is placed into a pot of boiling water on high).
5. Stir gently until all the chocolate is combined and the mixture is smooth.
6. Allow to cool.
Once cooled, use your fingers to shape into little balls. Roll in cocoa powder and or dip in melted chocolate.
For the above, I rolled the chocolate in ground pistachio and almonds.
Tip: Use decaf coffee if truffles are served after supper.
