NibMor's Raw Truffle Recipe

Thanks to everyone who joined us at the New York Chocolate Show this past week.  The show was a great success. We gave out over 3000 samples of Drinking Chocolate!  WOW!  People know how to drink their chocolate!

NibMor gal Heather K. Terry lead a demo of our Raw Truffles and we wanted to share it with everyone.  They were a huge hit and are a great alternative to all those sugary holiday treats.  Add them to the table- no one will ever know they are good for them!  Happy Nibbling!

NibMor's Raw Truffles:

For truffle:
1 1/2 cups walnuts
1 1/2 cups almonds
½ cup cacao powder
2 tbsp chia seeds

2 tbsp hemp seeds
 7 majool dates soaked overnight (or 14 piglet dates)
agave or maple syrup to taste

For coating:

cacao powder, tempered chocolate (we use NibMor’s Daily Dose of Dark 72%), shredded coconut or NibMor’s Drinking Chocolate mixes

Use a food processor to combine the nuts first.  Slowly add in cacao powder and flax. Add the dates a few at a time, you may have to stop the food processor and scrape down the sides.  Add agave or maple syrup.  Mixture should not be watery but clumpy and dough like.  Form into desired size truffles and roll in cacao powder, coconut, or tempered chocolate. 

Makes roughly 40 truffles.
