Ingredients
- 200 grams Cocoa butter
- 50 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 100 grams Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a medium-sized pot, filling it with water about one-third full and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Step 2
Place a heatproof bowl on top of the pot to create a double boiler. Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Step 3
Add the cocoa butter to the bowl and allow it to melt completely, stirring occasionally with a spatula.
Step 4
Once the cocoa butter is melted and smooth, whisk in the unsweetened cocoa powder until fully combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the powdered sugar, continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Step 6
Dissolve the instant coffee granules in 1 tablespoon of hot water, creating a coffee concentrate.
Step 7
Stir the coffee concentrate, vanilla extract, and salt into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
Step 8
Remove the bowl from heat and carefully pour the mixture into silicone candy molds of your choice, or use a lined baking dish if molds are unavailable.
Step 9
Gently tap the molds or dish on the counter to release any air bubbles and smooth the top.
Step 10
Allow the chocolates to set at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until fully solidified. Alternatively, refrigerate for faster setting.
Step 11
Once set, remove the chocolate coffee candies from molds or slice into pieces if using a baking dish.
Step 12
Store candies in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for a firmer texture.
