Vegan Chocolate Truffles

Servings: 18

Ingredients:

  • 8 dates, lightly soaked
  • 4 ounces cocoa butter
  • 2 ounces coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup brown rice syrup
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder + more for dusting

Directions:

If your dates are stale, soak them in water for up to 30 minutes and dry to make sure they’ll blend.

Add the cocoa butter and coconut oil into a food processor and blend until soft and emulsified. Add the dates and sweetener and continue to process until the dates have formed a paste. Add in the cocoa powder and blend until mixed.

Move to the refrigerator for 10 minutes to stiffen the mixture. Once it’s cooled, scoop and roll the chocolate into 1-inch balls and roll in a plate of cocoa powder to dust. Keep these at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
