Shopping List
-
For the Truffles
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup almond or cashew butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract For Coating
- 3/4 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- flakey sea salt, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Melt the chocolate chips in a microwaveable bowl or double boiler. If using a microwave, heat the chocolate in 15 to 30 second increments and stir regularly to avoid burning.
- Step 2: Combine the black beans, melted chocolate, nut butter, and vanilla in a food processor. Blend until the mixture is super smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Refrigerate or freeze the truffle batter for 30 minutes or longer (this will make it easier to roll into a ball later).
- Step 3: Roll the chilled batter with your hands into small, truffle-sized balls. Refrigerate.
- Step 4: To make the coating, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwaveable bowl or double boiler. As before, if using a microwave, heat the chocolate mixture in 15 to 30 second increments and stir regularly to avoid burning.
- Step 5: Use a fork to dip the truffles into the melted chocolate mixture. Let the excess chocolate drip off and then place each truffle on a cooling rack or parchment paper. While the chocolate is still runny, lightly sprinkle some of the optional salt on top. Continue this process with all the truffle balls.
- Step 6: Refrigerate the truffles until the chocolate has hardened and then gently remove them from the rack or parchment (a small knife can help if they are stuck).
- Serve: Store the truffles in the freezer. Remove them from the freezer 5 to 10 minutes before ready to eat. Enjoy.
