Preparation / Directions:
Put chocolate, butter, coffee or water, egg yolks and vanilla bean into a microwave safe cooking dish. Mix slightly to moisten chocolate. Microwave on 50% power for 3-minutes. Stir to dissolve lumps. Please note that additional time may be used at 20-second intervals on 50 % power if chocolate needs more time to melt. Stir in "Equal Spoonful" sweetener and combine well. Spoon onto small pan lined with waxed paper. Spread evenly and remove vanilla bean. Place in refrigerator until semi-firm. Save the reserved vanilla bean hull for another recipe.
Prepare dusting powder by combining "Equal Spoonful" sweetener and cocoa powder in a small bowl. When truffles are firm enough to hold shape, cut into desired bite sized squares and mold into balls by hand. Roll each truffle in dusting powder. Serve at room temperature. Refrigerate to store.
