Coffee Liqueur Chocolate Truffles Recipe
Directions
  • Slowly heat bittersweet chocolate and cream, stirring continuously until mixture is melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in butter and coffee liqueur.
  • When butter has melted, pour mixture into an 8-inch square baking pan. Cool in refrigerator approximately 2 hours.
  • Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper. With a melon baller, scoop chocolate into balls and place onto baking sheet.  Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • Melt the semi-sweet chocolate according to package directions. Once the chocolate is smooth, place each cooled truffle ball into melted chocolate to cover. Place on parchment paper and refrigerate until serving.
  • Alternative coatings: coconut, toasted coconut, white chocolate, drizzled white chocolate, drizzled dark chocolate, unsweetened cocoa powder, crushed nuts or crushed candy pieces.
