Description
Soft, melt-in-your-mouth espresso truffles made without an oven—customize with chocolate dips or go dairy-free for a vegan option.
Ingredients
4 oz cream cheese or coconut butter
2 tbsp butter (or additional coconut butter for a dairy-free version)
3 tbsp powdered sugar or erythritol
1/2 tsp instant coffee
3 oz chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (optional, for dipping)
Instructions
Bring cream cheese and butter (or coconut butter) to room temperature for easier mixing.
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Whip with hand beaters for a smooth texture (or use a fork if needed).
Spread mixture into a shallow dish or chill in the mixing bowl until firm enough to scoop.
Scoop and roll into balls. Place on wax or parchment paper-lined plate.
Chill in the refrigerator or freezer until firm.
Optional: Dip chilled truffles in melted chocolate and let set before serving.
Notes
No-Bake Friendly: Requires no oven—just mix, chill, and enjoy.
Vegan Option: Use plant-based butter and coconut butter or vegan cream cheese.
Keto Version: Swap sugar with erythritol or xylitol and use sugar-free chocolate.
Texture Tip: Room temp ingredients and whipping ensure creaminess.
Serving Tip: Let truffles rest at room temp for a few minutes before enjoying if frozen.
