These are some of the yummiest truffles I make! Yet so simple. They’re rich, chocolatey, and perfectly sweet, with a hint of sea salt. All while staying surprisingly healthy. Sugar-free, oil-free, gluten-free, and vegan of course!
Pecans are one of my all-time favorite nuts. The tender American tree nuts are rich and buttery tasting. Pecans are a great source of energy, minerals, and antioxidants and vitamins that are essential for wellness.
These little chocolate balls of wonder are perfect to bust out for potlucks, dinner parties, or holidays. Easy to whip up, so give em a try!
Handy tip: Refrigerate your coconut milk overnight to make solid. Look for a brand without emulsifiers. It should have only two ingredients: coconut and water.
