Ingredients

For the Tiramisu Truffles:

  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 tbsp. Espresso Powder
  • 2 cups Semi Sweet Chocolate
  • 1/3 cup Mascarpone Cheese room temperature
  • 1/2 tsp. Fine Sea Salt
  • 4-6 finely crushed Ladyfingers
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Bean Paste

For the Chocolate Coating:

  • 2 cups Semi Sweet Chocolate and/or White Chocolate
  • 2 tbsp. Coconut Oil
  • Optional Crushed Peppermint, for the white chocolate
  • Optional Cocoa Powder, for the semi sweet chocolate

Instructions

  • Combine the heavy cream and espresso powder in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until it bubbles on the edges.
  • Place the chopped semisweet chocolate in a bowl, then pour the hot cream over top. Let sit for 5 minutes before stirring smooth. If needed, heat up over a saucepan with boiling water to help it melt better.
  • Add the mascarpone cheese, salt, and vanilla bean paste to whisk until very smooth and glossy.
  • Fold in the crushed ladyfingers. Cover the surface with Saran Wrap and chill in the freezer for 20-30 minutes, or the fridge for 1-2 hours, until firm enough to roll individual truffle balls.
  • Once chilled, wet the palm of your hands with a little water to roll 1" balls. Place on a parchment paper lined baking pan or plate. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  • Heat up the dipping chocolate of choice and stir in the coconut oil.
  • Use a fork to dip each truffle into the melted chocolate then place on a parchment paper lined pan.
  • If using semi sweet chocolate to coat, dust with cocoa powder. If using white chocolate to coat, add crushed peppermint while it's still melted.
  • Let sit until chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes.
