Raw Almond Truffles

These truffles are so easy to make that I do not dare to call this a recipe. But for those of you who are wondering how I made these, here you go. :)

                

Here are the ingredients that you're gonna need:
  • almonds (whole + chips for garnish) / or you can use raw almond butter from the grocery store
  • hazelnuts
  • raw cacao beans / or you can use raw cocoa powder
  • raw coconut oil
  • some sweetener (stevia, agave nectar..)

Procedure:
  1. Make your own almond butter from scratch- put the almonds into a food processor and blend (the amount depends on your type of the processor, don't blend too many almonds at a time, otherwise you could damage it). It takes some time, approximately 15-20 minutes, so really be patient with this. After some time, the almonds will let the oil and it'll all become creamy and yummy. :) 
  2. You can add the sweetener if you wish.
  3. Take a spoonful of the almond butter, place a hazelnut in the middle and roll it in your hands to create a nice ball.

  1. Make your own chocolate from scratch- blend the cocoa beans as much as possible and mix them with a little bit of coconut oil until it becomes fairly thick. 
  2. Then garnish with your chocolate and almond chips.
  3. Refrigerate for a couple of hours...
...and enjoy!
