October 2009 Recipe
Dulce de Leche Coffee Truffles
2 cups Whole milk
28 oz. Dulce de leche
10 oz. Heavy cream
As needed Milk
1.5 oz. Coarsely ground coffee beans
2 oz. Corn syrup
15 oz. Peter’s® Malan™ milk chocolate, tempered
2 oz. Irish cream liqueur
Peter’s® Malan™ milk chocolate
To make dulce de leche:
Immerse two unopened 14 oz. cans of sweetened condensed
milk in a pot of simmering water for 4 hours. Remove from
water and allow to cool to room temperature.
To make ganache:
Bring heavy cream and coffee to a boil. Remove from heat,
cover and allow to steep for five minutes. Strain cream/
coffee mixture. Return cream to its original weight by adding
additional milk. Add corn syrup to cream mixture. Bring to
a boil and then pour over tempered Peter’s® Malan™ milk
chocolate. Mix all ingredients together until smooth.
Make shell moulds out of tempered Peter’s® Malan™ milk
chocolate. Fill shells halfway to the top with dulce de leche.
Fill remainder of shell with ganache. Allow filling to cool until
it has formed a “crust”. Put a bottom on truffles and allow to
set up.
Yield: Approximately 125 pieces
