Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup espresso beans
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (or 1 milk chocolate bar)

Instructions

  1. Melt the Chocolate: Place the chocolate chips or broken pieces of the milk chocolate bar in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted. Take care to avoid overheating or burning the chocolate.
  2. Combine Beans with Chocolate: Remove the bowl from the microwave and add the espresso beans. Stir thoroughly until all the beans are evenly coated with melted chocolate.
  3. Coat and Arrange Beans: Using a fork, lift each chocolate-covered espresso bean individually and place it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Be sure to space them so they are not touching each other to allow for proper setting.
  4. Repeat Coating: Continue removing and placing beans on the parchment until all are coated and arranged on the baking sheet.
  5. Allow to Set: Let the chocolate-covered espresso beans cool at room temperature until the chocolate solidifies. For faster setting, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator.
