Main Ingredients
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 1 cup ladyfinger crumbs
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Prepare mascarpone mixture: In a bowl, thoroughly mix the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Dissolve espresso: Dissolve the instant espresso powder in a tablespoon of hot water until fully dissolved, then stir this espresso mixture into the mascarpone blend to infuse the coffee flavor.
- Add ladyfinger crumbs: Gently fold the ladyfinger crumbs into the mascarpone and espresso mixture, ensuring everything is evenly combined without overmixing.
- Chill the mixture: Place the combined mixture in the refrigerator and chill it for 15 minutes to firm up for easier rolling.
- Shape truffles: Once chilled, roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls using your hands.
- Coat truffles: Roll each ball evenly in the cocoa powder to coat completely, adding a rich chocolate exterior.
- Final chill: Refrigerate the cocoa-coated truffles for at least 10 minutes before serving to set their shape and enhance flavors.
Notes
- Ensure the espresso powder is fully dissolved to avoid graininess in the truffles.
- Chilling the mixture is crucial for easy handling and shaping of the truffles.
- Store the truffles covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3-4 days for best freshness.
- For an extra touch, you can roll some truffles in finely chopped nuts or white chocolate shavings instead of cocoa powder.
