Here’s how to make these delicious Tiramisu Truffles:

Table of Contents

Ingredients:

1 cup ladyfinger cookies, crushed

8 oz mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp brewed espresso (cooled)

1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup dark chocolate, melted
Cocoa powder (for coating)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Base:

In a large bowl, combine the crushed ladyfinger cookies, mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, cooled brewed espresso, and vanilla extract.
Mix everything together until you have a smooth, sticky dough-like consistency. If the mixture feels too wet, you can add a little more crushed ladyfinger cookies to balance it out.

2. Shape the Truffles:

Take small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls between your palms. Continue until all the mixture is used up.

3. Coat the Truffles:

Roll the truffles in the melted dark chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow the excess chocolate to drip off before placing the truffle on a parchment-lined tray.
Once all truffles are coated in chocolate, place them in the refrigerator to chill for about 20-30 minutes, or until firm.

4. Final Touch – Cocoa Powder Coating:

After the truffles have chilled and firmed up, roll them in cocoa powder for a final touch. The cocoa powder will give them the classic Tiramisu look and add a rich cocoa flavor.

5. Serve:

Once the truffles are fully chilled and coated, serve them up on a platter. These truffles can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Enjoy!

These Tiramisu Truffles are the perfect blend of creamy mascarpone, rich coffee flavor, and dark chocolate. They are great for sharing at parties, gifting, or simply enjoying as an indulgent treat!
