Mint Fudge Truffles
These truffles are unbelievably fudgy and sweet. Best part is that they come together in minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 cup pitted dates (approx 12-14 medjool dates)
- 4 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 3 tbsp cacao or cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup walnuts
- 1/4 tsp mint extract
- large pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- optional: flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Soak dates in hot water for a few minutes or until soft. Drain. Blend all ingredients except melted chocolate in a food processor until a stick batter forms.
- Form batter into 1' balls and place on a plate (parchment paper optional). The batter will be very sticky and messy. Place plate in freezer uncovered for 1 hour.
- Prepare melted chocolate by melting the chocolate and coconut oil in a double-broiler.
- Remove truffles from the freezer and dip in the melted chocolate. Let excess chocolate drip off and put back on parchment paper. Optional: Top with flaky sea salt.
- These are able to be served immediately once chocolate hardens (can speed this up in the freezer for a few minutes). Leave in the freezer for at least an hour for best results. Store in the freezer. Enjoy!
