Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup dark roasted espresso beans
  • 50 grams chocolate bar
  • icing sugar for garnish (Optional)

Instructions
 

  • Add chunks of chocolate to a double broiler and stir. Or, microwave the chocolate, stirring every 30 seconds.
  • Remove chocolate from the heat and stir in the beans.
  • With a fork, remove the beans and place them on a wax paper-lined tray.

  • Add a garnish like cocoa powder or icing sugar. (Optional)
  • Serve now or store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Dark roasted espresso beans are suitable for this recipe since they are more brittle. Lighter roasted beans are too dense for chewing. 
  • 100% Arabica coffee beans tend to be less bitter than robusta blends. 
  • Any chocolate is suitable for this homemade chocolate-covered espresso beans recipe.
