Chocolate and coffee create an amazing combination. The chocolate is smooth, creamy, and perfectly sweet. On the other side, coffee is strong, bitter but very fragrant.
The chocolate creates a very thin layer on top of the truffles. The inside is soft, smooth, and creamy. This is such a delicate and fancy dessert you just need to make.

Let's make these vegan chocolate-covered coffee bean truffles!
TO make these coffee truffles you will need a high-speed blender or a food processor. I used a food processor because it works perfectly for this recipe.
In a food processor add dates, water, and almond extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Transfer this mixture to a bowl and add oat flour, almond meal, cacao powder, coffee and combine.
The last step is to form coffee beans. Simply scoop 1 tbsp of the mixture and roll the bowl into your hands. If the mixture is too sticky, then use rice flour for your hands and for coating.
Lastly, flatten the ball and create the shape of a coffee bean using a toothpick.
Melt the vegan chocolate with coconut oil and coven each coffee bean truffle thinly.
Put the truffles into the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. Enjoy!
These vegan chocolate-covered coffee bean truffles are just so delightful. These homemade truffles are so soft, perfectly flavored and so smooth. The combination of chocolate and coffee flavor is so good! This is such a delicious vegan & gluten-free dessert.
