How to Make Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread 1 cup of coffee beans in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until fragrant.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips, stirring frequently until smooth and creamy.
- Add the cooled coffee beans to the melted chocolate and gently stir until each bean is thoroughly coated.
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully lift the chocolate-covered beans and place them on a sheet of wax paper to allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- Once the chocolate has slightly set but is still pliable (about 15-20 minutes), gently roll each bean between your palms to create a perfectly round shape.
- Optional: Roll the beans in 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder for an extra touch of richness.
- Allow the chocolate to fully harden completely before storing in an airtight container at room temperature.
