Ingredients
-
- Cookie Dough Truffles:
- 3 tablespoons creamy cashew butter (or sunbutter/tahini)
- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar (or granulated sugar of choice)
- 2 teaspoons pure molasses
- 3/4 cup almond flour (75g)
- 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/8 teaspoon allspice
- 2 tablespoons non-dairy coffee creamer (or milk/cream of choice)
- Chocolate Coating:
- 4 ounces dairy-free dark chocolate (about 2/3 cup chocolate chips)
- 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
- Flaked sea salt, optional (for garnish)
Instructions
- Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the nut or seed butter, coconut sugar, and molasses until smooth.
- Add almond flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice. Slowly add non-dairy creamer or milk until a rollable dough forms (not crumbly).
- Using a small cookie scoop or 1/2 tablespoon, roll the dough into approximately 14 small balls and place them on the lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the dough balls for 15 minutes.
- While the dough chills, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments (or melt in a saucepan over low heat), stirring until smooth.
- Dip each truffle in the melted chocolate using a spoon and place back on the parchment-lined tray. Drizzle any extra chocolate over the tops and sprinkle with flaked sea salt if using.
- Place truffles in the refrigerator to set, if needed. Store in a covered container in the fridge. They can also be kept at room temperature unless it’s too warm.
Notes
- Use a smooth, well-stirred nut or seed butter for best results.
- You can swap the chocolate coating for a dusting of cocoa powder or leave uncoated for a lower-sugar option.
- Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for longer shelf life.
