Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 120 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Instant coffee powder
- 2 tablespoons Splenda granular sweetener
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder (for coating)
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate into small, even pieces and place in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Step 3
Stir in the instant coffee powder and Splenda until fully dissolved.
Step 4
Pour the hot cream mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Step 5
Gently stir the mixture with a rubber spatula or whisk until smooth and glossy. This is your ganache.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until the ganache is firm enough to shape.
Step 7
Using a small spoon or melon baller, scoop out portions of the ganache and roll them into bite-sized balls with your hands. Work quickly, as the ganache will soften from the warmth of your hands.
Step 8
Place the cocoa powder in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle in the cocoa powder to coat evenly.
Step 9
Transfer the truffles to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to one week. Bring to room temperature before serving for the best flavor.
