How to Make Raw Chocolate And Date Truffles
- If using regular dates, soak them in warm water for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight. Drain well before proceeding.
- Place 1 cup pitted dates (soaked if necessary) and ½ cup nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans) into a food processor.
- Process for 1-2 minutes, until a dense, flour-like consistency is achieved.
- Add ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ¼ cup melted coconut oil, 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener), and a pinch of sea salt. Pulse several times until the mixture begins to clump together and form a dough.
- Using your hands, roll the mixture into small, 1-inch balls.
- Roll the truffles in ½ cup desiccated coconut for coating.
- Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
