Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

4 oz cream cheese or coconut butter
2 tbsp butter, or additional coconut butter
3 tbsp powdered sugar or erythritol
1/2 tsp instant coffee
3 oz chocolate chips or broken up chocolate (optional)

Instructions

Prepare Ingredients: Bring the cream cheese (or coconut butter) and butter (or additional coconut butter) to room temperature if they are not already soft. This softening will help them blend more smoothly.
Mix Ingredients: Combine the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar (or erythritol), and instant coffee until the mixture is smooth. Using a hand mixer will provide the smoothest results, but stirring with a fork works as well.
Shape Truffles: Spread the mixture into a container or freeze it briefly until firm enough to scoop. Use a mini cookie scoop to form balls and place them onto a parchment-lined plate.
Freeze Until Firm: Freeze the shaped truffle balls until they are firm to the touch. If you spread the mixture in a container, you can cut them into bars or squares instead of scooping balls.
Optional Chocolate Dip: If desired, melt the chocolate chips and dip the truffles in the melted chocolate. For a smoother dip, stir half a teaspoon of oil into the melted chocolate. Allow the chocolate to set before cutting the truffles in half, if you want to create bite-sized pieces.
Storage: Refrigerate or freeze any leftovers to keep them fresh until ready to serve.

Notes

Room temperature ingredients blend more easily, resulting in smoother truffles.
Powdered sugar can be replaced with erythritol for a lower-sugar version.
If dipping in chocolate, adding a small amount of oil smooths the melted chocolate for easier coating.
Store truffles in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain firmness and freshness.
Cutting truffles in half after the chocolate coating sets creates smaller bite-sized treats.
