Ingredients

  • 2 3.5 oz chocolate bars vegan dark chocolate without dairy
  • 3/4 cup coconut cream just the extra thick cream and not the really watery part.
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1/4 cup creamy nut or seed butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract see notes
  • cocoa powder for rolling

Instructions

  • In a double boiler, place all the ingredients except the cocoa powder into a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water and melt until completely melted and combined. 
  • Place in fridge uncovered until it hardens, about 1-2 hours.
  • Using a spoon, scoop out a small amount of truffle ganache and roll into a ball. Roll truffles in cocoa powder and place in a dish.

Notes

Keep truffles cool. If they get too warm they will melt.
When rolling them, it helps if the ganache is still pretty cool. To cold and they will be a little harder to roll, but if they are too warm they may melt a little to fast. Still works and still tastes yummy.
