How to Make Ginger Truffles

  1. Pulverize 150g of dairy-free biscuits (like gluten-free digestive biscuits) in a food processor until you have fine crumbs.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of finely grated fresh ginger and process for 1 minute, scraping down the sides halfway through.
  3. Add 200g of dairy-free dark chocolate, broken into small pieces, and process until a sticky dough forms.
  4. Spread the dough evenly onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until firm enough to roll into balls.
  5. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate overnight.
  6. Melt 100g of dairy-free dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Dip each ginger ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Place them back on the parchment-lined tray.
  7. Refrigerate until the chocolate is completely hardened. If the mixture becomes too stiff to roll easily, remove it from the fridge for a few minutes to soften slightly. You may need to work in batches.
