Coffee Liqueur Truffles
Hola and Happy Holidays!
This year the holidays will look very different for a lot of families, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t cook and bake your favorite dishes. I will pretty much cook and bake the same and I will have lots and lots of leftovers! Yum! I love leftovers.
Around the holidays I always like to bake pies and some treats (chocolate treats!). This year I am making coffee liqueur truffles. Oh yum!
If you don’t seem too convinced about these truffles, check out my blackberry liqueur truffles. Or make both to please the crowd or yourself lol
I love making these truffles because you can make them up to 1 week ahead of time! My mom always makes truffles near Christmas because she is a chocoholic and she knows I am too LOL!
I highly suggest using good quality chocolate, don’t go cheap!
Let’s bake!
