    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1/2 cup unblanched almonds, roasted
3 tbsp cocoa powder plus 2 tsp, (divided)
1 tsp Instant coffee powder
1/4 cup shredded coconut
1 egg yolk
2 tbsp kahlua, plus I tsp
2 tbsp toasted coconut

Roast the almonds in a 350 oven for 10 minutes. In food processor or blender, grind the almonds to the consistency of coarse crumbs. Add the 3 tbsp of carob, the coffee, coconut, and egg yolk, and 2 tbsp of the Kahlua. Blend until all ingredients are incorporated. Scoop up about 1/2 tsp of the mixture at a time and roll between palms into a ball the size of a marble.

Skewer on a toothpick, then roll each marble first in the remaining Kahlua, then in the remaining carob powder, and finally the toasted coconut.

Makes 24 truffles.

Note: Make double the recipe-they freeze well.
