Easy chocolate truffles
Ingredients
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients, finely chop the dark chocolate, and ensure you have the coconut cream separated from a can of full-fat coconut milk.
- Heat up the coconut cream in the microwave until luke warm (it should not boil).
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the finely chopped vegan dark chocolate and coconut cream.
- In a small saucepan, melt the vegan butter over low heat. Once melted, pour it over the chocolate and coconut cream mixture. Let it sit for a minute to allow the heat to melt the chocolate. Stir until smooth.
- Add the vanilla extract to the melted chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the mixture is firm.
- Once the mixture is firm, use a spoon or a melon baller to scoop out small portions and roll them into balls. Place the truffles on a parchment paper-lined tray.
- Put the truffle in the fridge for 30 Minutes or 15 Minutes in the freezer.
- Melt the additional dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, coating it completely. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- While the chocolate coating is still wet, sprinkle the truffles with sea salt, chopped nuts, or any other desired toppings.
- Place the coated and topped truffles back in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.
