Ingredients

• 8 oz Semi-sweet chocolate
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 3 tbsp Kahlua liqueur
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the semi-sweet chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl.

Step 2

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and unsalted butter. Heat the mixture until it just begins to simmer, then remove it from the heat.

Step 3

Pour the hot cream and butter mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.

Step 4

Using a spatula or whisk, gently stir the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the ganache is smooth.

Step 5

Stir in the Kahlua liqueur and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the ganache for 1-2 hours, or until it is firm enough to scoop but still pliable.

Step 7

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a small cookie scoop or a teaspoon, scoop out portions of the chilled ganache and roll them into balls with your hands. Place the rolled truffles on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm them up further.

Step 9

Place the unsweetened cocoa powder in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until fully coated.

Step 10

Store the Kahlua truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Allow them to come to room temperature before serving.
