Gold Coffee Truffles for Your Christmas Feasting and Gifting

These Gold Coffee Truffles are easy to make, easy to gift and easy to eat!

So you'd probably better make more than you think you'll need!

Here's how to make them:-

Prep: 10 minutes plus chilling

Cook: 10 minutes

Makes approx. 25

275g dark chocolate, 54% cocoa, chopped

150ml double cream

25g unsalted butter

2 tbsp Camp Chicory & Coffee Essence

125g white chocolate, chopped

To decorate, edible gold leaf and gold shimmer powder

Place 150g chopped dark chocolate in a large heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water.  Add the cream, butter and Camp essence and heat gently until just melted, stir until well combined.  Cool and then chill until almost set, about 3-4 hours.

Using a melon baller or teaspoon and using lightly oiled hands, mould into approx. 25 round balls and place on a tray lined with baking parchment. Chill until firm.

Melt the remaining 125g dark chocolate and the white chocolate in 2 separate small bowls over 2 small saucepans of simmering water until melted. Allow to cool slightly.

Dip half the truffles in the dark chocolate and half in the white chocolate, using 2 forks to completely cover.  Place on a tray lined with baking parchment and again chill until set.

To decorate, place gold leaf on the dark truffles using a clean dry paint brush and dust the white truffles with gold shimmer powder.

Cooks tip

Try dusting half in cocoa and half in icing sugar for a quick alternative.
