Ingredients

  • 12 oz vegan dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder (for dusting)

Directions

  1. In a heatproof bowl, add the chopped dark chocolate.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the coconut milk and coconut oil over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
  3. Pour the hot coconut milk mixture over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for a minute to melt the chocolate.
  4. Using a whisk, gradually stir the mixture until smooth and well combined.
  5. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.

  8. Place the cocoa powder in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until evenly coated.
  9. Transfer the coated truffles to a plate or airtight container. Repeat the process until all the mixture is used.
  10. Refrigerate the truffles for another 30 minutes to set.
  11. Serve the vegan chocolate truffles chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy!
