Paleo 'Peanut' Butter Truffles

Recipe by: Deanna Dorman

These little nuggets of dark chocolate and almond butter are pure Paleo perfection.

Tools

• Mixing bowl
• Cookie sheet
• Parchment paper
• Toothpicks

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup all-natural almond butter
• 1/2 cup coconut flour
• 1/4 cup coconut sugar
• 1/2 cup good quality dark chocolate
• 1 t coconut oil

Instructions

• Mix together the almond butter, coconut flour, and coconut sugar until smooth.
• Roll into ¾ to 1 inch balls and place on parchment paper-lined cookie sheet.
• Place the cookie sheet in the freezer to harden for 15-20 minutes.
• Before taking out your truffles, prepare your coating by melting your chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave for 20 second intervals on 50% power until almost completely melted. Mix to let the last of the chocolate melt.
• Using a toothpick, dip one truffle at a time in the chocolate to completely cover the truffle and place on baking sheet. (If you want you can spoon a tiny bit of chocolate on top to cover the hole on top.)
• Once all the truffles are covered, place the cookie sheet in the freezer and allow to harden at least 30 minutes. Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.
