These quick and easy to make White Chocolate Truffles are a healthy blend of whole food ingredients to make one very delicious treat.
- 100 g cacao butter -melted
- 100 g coconut oil -melted
- 170 g rice malt syrup or maple syrup (½ cup)
- 1 tsp vanilla -powder, extract or essence
- 80 g desiccated coconut (1 cup)
- 400 g almond meal (approx. 4 cups)
Mix the cacao butter, coconut oil, sweetener and vanilla together until well combined. If the weather is cool you may need to do this over a very low heat (or in a metal bowl over a pot of simmering water).
Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well until combined (I mixed mine in my Thermomix).
Check the constancy of the mix, if it is not firm enough to roll into balls add a little more almond meal.
If you'd prefer you can press this into a slice tin lined with baking paper, chill and then cut into squares or 'bliss bites' as I like to call them.
I rolled/topped mine with toasted desiccated coconut, you could also use shredded coconut. Place on a tray lined with baking paper.
Then place into the freezer right away and chill until firm.
Thermomix Method
Add the cacao butter, coconut oil, sweetener and vanilla to the Thermomix bowl. Combine 2 minutes, 37deg, speed 2. You may need more time depending on the ambient temperature.
Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well until combined, 20-30 seconds, speed 3-4, using the Thermomix spatula through the lid to help incorporate.
