As always, there are subtitles available if you'd like to follow along with what's happening on screen.
Recipe:
1 cup (220g) light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup (113g/1 stick) salted butter
1/4 cup (56g) heavy cream
scant 1/2 tsp instant coffee (or sub instant espresso)
1 pinch salt
2 cups (227g) powdered sugar
12oz (340g) dark chocolate bars, chopped (or sub chips) (can also use lighter chocolate)
1 tbsp (13g) vegetable/canola oil (only add if using chips)
1/4 cup (35g) chocolate sprinkles
Directions:
Melt the butter and brown sugar together in a medium pot over medium heat. Once bubbling, set a timer for 2 minutes.
Once the timer is up add the cream, coffee and salt and whisk constantly. It will bubble and steam, so be careful to not get burned. Bring the mixture back to bubbling for 30 seconds, then remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
Whisk in the powdered sugar, then transfer to a heat-safe dish, cover and let it cool to room temperature. Chill for 30-45 minutes. You want it to hold it’s shape but not get too firm to the point that you can’t scoop it.
Once chilled, divide using a 1-tbsp cookie scoop just shy of full. Take each ball and flatten the top and sides so it resembles a See’s Bordeaux. Place on a parchment paper or silicone mat lined baking sheet and chill until you’re ready to coat them.
Combine the chocolate and oil (if using chocolate chips) in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until almost fully melted.
Use a fork to dip each truffle into the chocolate, then shake it gently over the bowl to get the excess off and use a toothpick to push it off the fork back onto the lined pan. After dipping every 2-3 truffles, coat them in sprinkles. Repeat for the remaining truffles.
Chill for 30 minutes, then transfer to an air-tight container and store in the fridge. Enjoy!'
