Description
Delicious and guilt-free Sugar Free Mocha Truffle Cups that satisfy your sweet tooth without the sugar.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the instant coffee granules, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until it thickens enough to scoop.
- Once the mixture is chilled, use a small cookie scoop or spoon to form small balls and roll them in your hands to create truffles.
- Roll each truffle in unsweetened cocoa powder to coat. Place the finished truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the truffle cups for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Notes
- For a minty twist, add a few drops of peppermint extract to the chocolate mixture before chilling.
- Substitute the cocoa powder with finely chopped nuts or shredded coconut for a different coating option.
