A simple and decadent treat that melts in your mouth! These Kahlua Truffles are so easy to make and the perfect addition to any holiday dessert platter.

Kahlua Truffles

Every year a few weeks before Christmas I get together with one of my friends and we have a dessert gift making night.

Last year we made Spiked Hot Chocolate Truffles and the year before that we made an assortment of truffles and candies.

We make large batches of our treats to share with co-workers, family and friends during the holidays. Working together in the kitchen makes the task a lot more fun and we get so much more done.

We made  Raspberry Chambord Truffles that were absolutely amazing two years ago which were the inspiration behind these Kahlua Truffles.

I wanted a little added sweetness to add to my cookie platters that I’m making for some holiday parties this weekend.

The only problem is a little mouse got into my Truffles and now they’re almost all gone!  Luckily they are so quick to make I can easily  whip up another batch in no time!
