Chop the chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl.
In a saucepan, heat the cream until it starts to simmer (don’t let it boil).
2️⃣ Infuse with coffee:
Stir in the instant coffee and vanilla extract into the hot cream.
3️⃣ Make the ganache:
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 1-2 minutes.
Stir gently until smooth, then mix in the butter until fully incorporated.
4️⃣ Chill the mixture:
Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm.
5️⃣ Shape the truffles:
Using a spoon or melon baller, scoop out small portions and roll into balls with your hands.
If the mixture is too sticky, chill for another 15 minutes.
6️⃣ Coat the truffles:
Roll them in cocoa powder, finely ground coffee, or nuts.
7️⃣ Serve & store:
Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
💡 Tips:
Add a splash of coffee liqueur (like Kahlúa) for extra depth of flavor.
Roll truffles in melted chocolate for a smooth, glossy finish.
For a spicy twist, add a pinch of cinnamon or chili powder.
