Cacao & Coconut cream truffles

Writer's picture: Clare Louise YoungClare Louise Young


These dairy free, gluten free truffles are my favourite little treat and a great alternative to make this Easter. They are refined sugar free and use raw cacao which is high in relaxing magnesium . Try making these for Easter this weekend and rolling into eggs rather than a ball.


To make these delicious truffles you will need:

4 soaked Medjool dates (at least 1 hour in boiling water or over night in cold water),

60g of coconut cream (chilled)

1 tsp of vanilla extract

4 tbsp of blitzed cacao nibs

20g cacao butter

30g cacao powder

(optional 1 tbsp of almond butter)


Method:

Melt the cacao drops in a bain-marie,

blend the soaked dates into a paste and then add all the ingredients together in a bowl.

Once mixed, leave in the fridge to chill for 30-40 minutes.

Take out the fridge and roll the mixture into 15g balls then roll in the blitzed cacao nibs


Chilling the mixture first will make it easier to roll into balls.
