Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients except dates and coconut in a food processor. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until all ingredients are finely ground.
  2. Add one date at a time while the food processor runs, allowing each to blend thoroughly before adding the next. Mixture will be cake-like and crumbly, but will easily stick together when pressed. If the mixture does not hold together, add a couple of water drops or an extra date to moisten.
  3. Roll tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture into balls with your palms.
  4. Finish by rolling in a dish of coconut flakes if desired. Store truffles in the fridge.

  • 1/2 tsp Coconut Extract
  • 1/4 cup Cocoa Powder
Servings: truffles

Instructions
  1. Finely chop bittersweet chocolate in medium bowl and set aside.
  2. Place coconut milk in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat to just under boiling. Bubbles should appear at the edges only.
  3. Pour hot coconut milk over chopped chocolate and allow it to sit for one minute to soften. Gently whisk until the chocolate is melted and becomes a smooth, shiny ganache.
  4. Whisk in 1/4 tsp. coconut extract. Add up to 1/4 tsp. more if you prefer a stronger coconut flavor.
  5. Press a layer of plastic wrap directly on top of the ganache and refrigerate until firm enough to scoop and roll, about 1 hour.
  6. Pour cocoa powder in a shallow bowl. Dust hands lightly with cocoa powder. Use a spoon to scoop small pieces from the ganache and roll between your hands to get them round. Finish them by rolling in a thin coating of cocoa powder.
  7. Place on a tray in the refrigerator to set for about 15 minutes. Truffles are best served at room temperature.
