Ingredients
- 2 oz baking chocolate (100% chocolate)
- 1/4 cup sweetener (see notes for options)
- 1/4 cup whipping cream (see above for info on how to make probiotic truffles)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder as a coating (see above for alternatives)
Instructions
- Place a metal bowl over a pot of boiling water on the stove.
- Melt the chocolate and the sweetener together.
- When fully melted, remove bowl from heat and whisk in the whipping cream.
- Place the bowl in the fridge for 45 min (until the chocolate starts to harden).
- Use a spoon to scoop out 1 tablespoon of chocolate truffle mixture.
- Working quickly, roll the truffle into a ball shape, then roll in the cocoa powder.
- Store in a sealed container in the fridge.
Notes
- For traditional textured truffles use icing sugar. If you’re making probiotic truffles use sulfite-free icing sugar. I use this brand

- You can also use a granula sugar alternative like xylitolÂ
or stevia.
- Honey or maple syrup change the moisture levels of the truffle and result in very soft truffles. Either add 1 tbsp of cocoa powder to thicken the truffle, or store the truffles in the freezer until your ready to serve them.
