Ingredients
227g mascarpone cheese
100g powdered sugar
100g crushed ladyfingers
2 tablespoons brewed espresso
1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (like Kahlua)
200g semi-sweet or dark chocolate, for coating
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, mix mascarpone and powdered sugar until smooth.
2. Add crushed ladyfingers, brewed espresso, and coffee liqueur. Mix until combined into a dough-like texture.
3. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 1–2 hours until firm.
4. Once chilled, scoop and roll the mixture into balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 20 minutes.
5. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Dip each truffle in the chocolate and return to the tray.
6. Dust each truffle with cocoa powder while the chocolate is still tacky.
7. Refrigerate again until the chocolate coating sets completely.
Notes
Use high-quality mascarpone for the best creamy texture.
Chill your hands before rolling to prevent the filling from sticking.
If mixture feels too soft, add more crushed ladyfingers to firm it up.
