Instructions

Place the ladyfingers into the bowl of a food processor.

Process into fine crumbs. Set aside.

Prepare the Truffle Mixture.

In a bowl, add cold mascarpone with powdered sugar, salt and vanilla extract.

Add the coffee (and liqueur if using).

Whisk the mixture until well combined and creamy.

Add the crushed ladyfingers.

Fold them in until a thick, scoopable dough forms.

Taste and adjust: add a bit more sugar if you want sweeter truffles, or a bit more crushed biscuit if too soft.

Scoop about 1 tbsp of mixture.

Roll into balls.

Place on a parchment paper-lined tray and freeze for 1015 minutes to set.

Dust and Serve.

Mix unsweetened cocoa powder with a little instant coffee, then dust the truffles with the mixture.

Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
