Not Too Sweet Coffee-Flavored Truffles
- 165 grams 3 bars of dark chocolate
- 90 ml Low-fat cream
- 3 tsp Instant coffee
- 2 tsp Rum
- 15 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tsp Mizuame or honey
- 1 Cocoa powder
- Break the chocolate bars along the cracks and melt in a 50C double boiler.
- Warm the heavy cream, mizuame, and instant coffee in a pot.
- Turn the heat off when it's just about to boil.
- Pour the mixture from Step 2 into the bowl from Step 1 and fold in using a rubber spatula.
- Melt the butter in room temperature, and mix well into the chocolate with the rum to finish.
- Pour the chocolate into a mold lined with parchment paper.
- Chill in the fridge to set.
- When set, remove the chocolate from the mold and cut into desired sizes.
- Sprinkle the cocoa powder using a tea strainer.
- The butter and mizuame is to make the truffles more smooth.
- Please adjust the amount of mizuame to the sweetness of the chocolate bar.
- The mizuame itself is optional.
- If you'd like a harder result, please reduce the amount of the heavy cream.
- Here's the cocoa powder that I used.
- Rich Chocolate Mousse.
