Irresistible chocolate and cream truffle coated with cocoa powder

Ingredients:
360 gm dark chocolate bar
100 ml strong black coffee
125 gm unsalted butter
2 tbsp whipped cream
2 tsp roasted almonds

For Finishing
2 tbsp melted white chocolate
2 tbsp cocoa powder

8. Refrigerate these balls again for 5-10 minutes.
9. Now dip these truffles in melted white chocolate.
