Hazelnut Truffles

INGREDIENTS:  (Serves 12)

100g Hazelnuts

25g Desiccated Coconut (plus 1tbsp for coating)

30g Almond Meal (plus 1tbsp for coating)

40g Cacao Powder (I used Choc Chick)

¼ tsp Vanilla Essence

2tsbp Honey

1tbsp Hazelnut Milk (I used Rude Health)

 

RECIPE:

Pre heat the oven to 200˚c.

Place hazelnuts on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Roast in the oven for 10mins, be careful not to burn them.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool a little, rub each one between your hand to remove the dark brown outer layer. Discard the outer layer crumbs.

Blend the hazelnuts until smooth then spoon out into a big bowl and add all other ingredients and mix well until all combined. And more or less milk until desired texture is reached.

Roll mix into 12 balls. Scatter a tablespoon of both desiccated coconut and almond meal on to a plate. Coat each ball in the mix and then leave to set in the fridge for 1hour.

Munch on the go!
