Ingredients

Scale

Truffle Base

  • 1 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered Swerve Sweetener (or another powdered sweetener)
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • Pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Water, if needed (to adjust dough consistency)

Chocolate Coating

  • 3 ounces sugar-free dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 ounce cocoa butter (or 1 tbsp coconut oil)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Truffle Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, powdered sweetener, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
  2. Adjust Dough Consistency: If the dough feels too crumbly and doesn’t hold together well for rolling, add water one tablespoon at a time. Mix gently until the dough can be easily squeezed and rolled into balls without falling apart.
  3. Form the Truffles: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Freeze the formed truffles for at least 1 hour to firm up before coating.
  4. Melt the Chocolate Coating: Set a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water (double boiler). Add the chopped sugar-free dark chocolate and cocoa butter or coconut oil to the bowl. Stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
  5. Coat the Truffles: Remove one frozen truffle at a time and drop it into the melted chocolate, tossing carefully to coat evenly. Lift out the truffle using a fork and gently tap the fork on the side of the bowl to remove any excess chocolate.
  6. Set the Coating: Place the coated truffle back on the wax paper-lined baking sheet. If desired, add sprinkles or decorations immediately before the chocolate hardens. Repeat with the remaining truffles until all are coated.

Notes

  • To keep the dough from drying out, work quickly when rolling the truffles.
  • Use sugar-free chocolate to maintain keto compatibility.
  • If you prefer a firmer coating, chill the truffles after coating until chocolate is set.
  • Store truffles in the freezer or refrigerator to maintain their texture.
