Kathi asked for a recipe for Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans which I have included (2). Please tell her and everyone else, when they search Google.com for any recipe, to type the word recipe after the specific food they are looking for (ie. Chocolate covered coffee beans recipes).
Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans 1
1/3 C roasted Whole Coffee Beans
1/2 C Chocolate Chips
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler until liquid and smooth. Drop in a handful of beans, and stir them around. Scoop them out with a spoon, and set them out on waxed paper. Keep them separate. Continue until all the beans are covered. They will harden overnight, or if you are in a hurry, you can freeze them for about half an hour. Once hard, they won't stick together and can be stored in any air-tight container.
Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans 2
1 C roasted Coffee Beans
4 oz Chocolate Pieces
3 T Cocoa Powder
Melt the chocolate and cover the beans, using the technique in Recipe #1. Let them harden a little, but not completely. Roll the chocolate beans in the cocoa powder, and then let them finish hardening. I don't normally recommend flavoured coffees, but they can add a tasty twist to these treats. Try hazelnut or vanilla.
