Splenda Mocha Truffles
- Truffles
- 1 (250 g) package kraft philadelphia light cream cheese spread
- 3 tablespoons instant coffee granules
- 2 teaspoons water
- 1 1/2 cups Splenda granular
- 4 ounces baker's unsweetened chocolate squares
- Coating
- 3 tablespoons cocoa
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules (optional)
- In a medium sized bowl, dissolve instant coffee in water.
- Add cream cheese and blend until light& creamy.
- Add SPLENDA sweetener and blend well.
- In a separate small container, melt chocolate squares in microwave for 2 minutes on medium power or in a double boiler.
- Add to cream cheese mixture and blend well.
- Chill about 1 hour or until firm enough to shape.
- Shape into small drops about 1 inch.
- Place on sheet of wax paper and freeze.
- Prior to removing Truffles from freezer, mix cocoa and 1 Tbsp of instant coffee together, crushing the coffee granules to make a fine powder.
- When ready, remove Truffles& let sit about 5 minutes before coating.
- Hint: This coating is done easier by placing coffee into a ziploc plastic bag and using a rolling pin to crush before adding cocoa.
- Then place Truffles into bag and gently shake to coat.
- Store in airtight container in refrigerator.
