Oh hey, bye bye 👋 2017 and bring on 2018 🎉<\/strong>, let’s hope it brings happiness for everyone.<\/p>\n

So as my first post of 2018, this year I still want to carry on with my baking and cooking adventure. I want to experience different taste and experiences as I do every year and yet I still am greatly in love with food and I don’t think that will ever stop!<\/p>\n

Over the holidays I did some baking (of course) it was very Christmasy based. I made some gingerbread men finally<\/strong> after having my cutter for 2 years! yes I know, how bad is that?! unfortunately I didn’t get a chance to photograph them. I also made Lebkuchen<\/a> these are spiced German biscuits and are AMAZING they bring the most amazing smells of Christmas waft through the house, I just love them and their intense spiced flavour.<\/p>\n

Back to this post, these tiramisu truffles were made for NYE, I celebrated with my family, the best way for me. I thought these truffles would bring a little bit of sparkle into the new year and I had to add a bit of liquor obviously. I really love tiramisu and when I came across these I was super excited to make them and thought they would fit perfectly for NYE.<\/p>\n

These truffles are super easy to make and it does resemble the lovely flavour of tiramisu.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/div>\t\t\t
    \t\t\t\t
  1. 24 - ladyfingers<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  2. 2 tbsp - sugar<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  3. 250g - mascarpone cheese, room temperature*<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  4. 2-3 tablespoons espresso**<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  5. 12 ounces - dark chocolate<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  6. 2 tsp - espresso powder (optional)<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
    \t\t\t
    Instructions<\/div>\t\t\t
      \t\t\t\t
    1. 1. In a food processor, blend lady fingers until you have fine crumbs. Set aside 2 tablespoons to sprinkle on the truffles later. Transfer the remaining crumbs to a bowl. Add the sugar and whisk until combined.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    2. 2. Using a hand mixer (or stand mixer) add the mascarpone cheese to the bowl and mix until fully incorporated. Add the espresso one tablespoon at a time. You do not want a goopy consistency. It should be similar to a soft cookie dough. Transfer the mixture to a tupperware container and place in the fridge for 45 minutes to an hour.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    3. 3. Line a baking sheet or plate with parchment paper. Remove the mixture from the fridge (it should be firmer now). Start to shape the mixture into 36 (1-inch) balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    4. 4. Melt the chocolate and stir in the espresso powder. Dip a cold tiramisu truffle balls into the melted chocolate and transfer it back to the baking sheet\/plate. (I uses a fork) Sprinkle the truffle with the crushed lady fingers you set aside earlier. Repeat for the remaining truffles.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    5. 5. Place the back in the fridge for a 5 to 10 minutes for the chocolate to harden. Store tiramisu truffles in an airtight container in the fridge.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>
