Irish Coffee Chocolate Drops

Irish Coffee Chocolate Drops

Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ½-4 tablespoons Irish whiskey
  • Whole chocolate covered coffee beans for garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream to a boil. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the chocolate chips into the cream. Add in as much whiskey as desired, up to 4 tablespoons.
  • Whisk the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted.
  • Pour the mixture into a medium bowl and chill in the refrigerator until the mixture becomes thick enough to hold its shape.
  • Line 2 sheet pans with wax paper. Using a small ice cream scoop, place small roundish shaped balls and drop onto the sheet pan approximately 1 inch apart. You can also use a spoon and rubber spatula instead of the ice cream scoop.
  • Place one whole chocolate covered coffee bean on top of each chocolate drop and gently press the coffee bean into the drop.
  • Chill until firm. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

Makes approximately 3 dozen chocolate drops
