Espresso beans are roasted for a longer period of time, so they have a more bold, rich flavor. To make these sugar-free chocolate-covered espresso beans, you will want to start by lining a cookie sheet with parchment paper or even a silicone mat. This is good so that your coated beans don’t stick to the pan.
Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans are the perfect mid-day pick-me-up snack. These low-carb chocolate-covered beans will give you an energy boost, and be a tasty treat. Ever wonder how to make your own chocolate-covered espresso beans? There are only a few easy steps, which I will show you below. So what makes this a keto-approved snack?
But if you add in the caffeine from the chocolate around the bean, it may be a bit more. A cup of coffee has about 80-140 milligrams of caffeine depending on how it’s brewed. If you’re used to drinking a cup of coffee with 140 milligrams, it would take between 10-15 chocolate espresso beans to get the same amount of caffeine.
If you freeze the coffee beans with chocolate you will find that condensation can build up once they begin to thaw. The flavor will be slightly different and the texture can change in the bean a bit. So feel free to freeze in an airtight container if you would like.
