Tiramisu truffles
Tiramisu truffles are an irresistible blend of ground ladyfinger cookies, creamy mascarpone cheese and a splash of coffee, rolled into cocoa powder. These taste just like Tiramisu cake, only in a bite-sized form.
Servings: 30
Ingredients
- 24 ladyfingers
- 200 grams mascarpone cheese (7/8 cup, 7.05 oz)
- 30-50 grams powdered sugar (around 1/3 cup)
- 3-4 tablespoons strong brewed coffee or more
- cocoa powder for rolling or melted chocolate for dipping
Instructions
- In a food processor or with a ziplock and rolling pin finely ground ladyfingers.
- With a handheld mixer mix the mascarpone cheese until it is completely creamy, add sugar and coffee and mix thoroughly.
- Now mix in ground ladyfingers and with rubber spatula combine until incorporated.
- Try the mixture, add more sugar if it's not sweet enough, or add more coffee if you want stronger coffee flavor. Cover the bowl with plastic foil and place in the refrigerator for around 1 hour.
- Take small pieces of mixture and form balls (mine were 2-2.5 cm -1 inch).
- Roll each ball into cocoa powder or dip into melted chocolate (melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15-second intervals or using a water bath).
- Store truffles in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
