Main Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons instant coffee powder or espresso powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder for rolling
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, instant coffee powder, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Cover the bowl and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until firm enough to roll.
- Once chilled, scoop out small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls.
- Place the unsweetened cocoa powder in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle ball in the cocoa powder until fully coated.
- Arrange the finished truffles on a serving platter or in an airtight container. Chill again for another 15-20 minutes before serving, or until firm.
Notes
For an extra decadent touch, you can melt some dark chocolate and drizzle it over the truffles before the final chilling. Store leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
