These fudgy bites are naturally sweetened with dates, filled with strawberry flavor and coated in silky dark chocolate. The perfect no-bake, and refined sugar free treat for when you're craving something sweet!
Strawberry & Cream Truffles
- ¾ cup freeze dried strawberries
- ½ cup medjool dates pitted (~6-8 dates)
- ¾ cup almond flour packed, as you would brown sugar
- ¼ cup cashew butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp coconut cream* (solid thick white part of full fat can of coconut milk)
Chocolate Coating*
- 1 3oz bar dark chocolate rough chopped
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Start by making your truffles. In a food processor, blend freeze dried strawberries until fine/powder-like consistency is reached.
Add in the pitted medjool dates until they form into a ball (~1 minute).
Next, add in your remaining ingredients for the truffles - almond flour, cashew butter, vanilla extract, and coconut cream. Blend until combined and you reach a smooth consistency (1-2 minutes).
Remove dough from food processor and roll into ~14 - 15 balls. Move to freezer to harden for 15 - 20 minutes.
Make your chocolate coating. Combine your chopped chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals until chocolate has melted.
Dip each frozen truffle into the melted chocolate, making sure they are completely coated. Move back to freezer to let chocolate set/harden, an additional 5 - 10 minutes.
Store in fridge or freezer for longer term storage. Best served cold.
