chocolate peppermint buckini truffles
Makes 15 – 18 balls
what you need
1 cup Loving Earth Chocolate Buckinis
4 medjool dates
100g + 1/2 cup macadamias
1 tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp vanilla paste
3-5 drops peppermint essence, to taste
60g 85% raw dark chocolate
what to do
Place dates in a small bowl and cover with water. Soak for 10 mins. Drain and set aside.
Add 100g macadamias to food processor and process on a high speed until a fine meal powder. Remove from food processor. Due to the high oil content in the macadamias, they may turn to a “butter” whilst processing. This will be fine.
Add to the food processor, dates and 1/2 cup macadamias. Process until roughly chopped.
Then add the remaining ingredients, except for the dark chocolate, to the food processor. Process until well combined and sticky but still has some crunchy bits.
Grate the dark chocolate into a small bowl.
Roll the buckini mixture into your preferred size ball and then roll in the grated chocolate. Place on a lined tray.
When complete, place the balls in the refrigerator to set before serving.
