Guilt Free Chocolate Truffles Recipes

DARK CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Melt chocolate chips in the microwave (at 20 second intervals) or on a double boiler
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek Yogurt and nut butter. Pour the melted chocolate and mix well. Refrigerate until it starts to harden
• Working with approximately 2 tsp tablespoon at a time (we used a small ice cream scoop), form truffles, roll them in unsweetened cocoa powder and refrigerate until ready to serve

GUILT-FREE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Put chocolate into a heatproof bowl. If you aren't using chips, cut/break into small pieces first, this will ensure it melts properly.
• Put coconut cream into a small saucepan/pot and bring to a simmer
• When coconut cream is just starting to simmer, take it off the heat and pour over chocolate.
• Leave to sit for 2-3mins before stirring until all chocolate is melted and coconut cream and chocolate are combined.
• Now that you have your chocolate ganache, it needs to cool until firm enough to make into truffles. Put the chocolate mixture into the fridge for 2-3 hours until firm enough to roll.
• If using, put the cocoa powder and crushed pistachios onto a small plate each, ready for coating the truffles.
• Once ganache is firm enough, take out of the fridge, and using a metal spoon scoop up about 1 tbsp at a time, then using your hands, roll into a ball.
• If using, roll the ball into either the cocoa or pistachios, then set aside on a plate. (If not using cocoa or pistachios, just set straight onto a plate).
• Keep going until all the ganache is gone, you should get around 16 truffles.
• Once all rolled, put in the fridge for at least half an hour as they will need to reset.
