Ingredients
These truffles are made with just a few simple ingredients:

- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon strong brewed coffee
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder, for rolling
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, for topping
Instructions
To make these truffles, start by combining the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the mixture in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval. Continue to heat and stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Once the chocolate is melted, stir in the brewed coffee and mix until combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm enough to roll into balls.
Once the mixture is firm enough, scoop out 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball using your hands. Place the ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Place the cocoa powder in a shallow bowl. Roll each ball in the cocoa powder, making sure to coat it evenly. Place the coated balls back on the baking sheet and sprinkle each one with a pinch of sea salt.
Place the truffles in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to let them set. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
