Not only are these quick and easy to make requiring 7 ingredients, 10 minutes, and 1 food processor. They’re also healthier than your average truffle, relying on dates for natural sweetness, cacao powder for antioxidants, and cashew butter and almond flour for plenty of healthy fats and protein. Let’s do this! This recipe starts in the food processor. Pitted dates are blended with a bit of water and coconut oil, which adds creaminess and helps them firm up once chilled. Next comes cacao powder, vanilla for a boost of flavor, salt for balance, and nut butter for creamy texture. Lastly, blend in some almond flour to make the mixture pliable and easy to roll into balls! The “batter” kind of looks like brownies, and we’re not mad about it. All that’s left to do is roll into truffles and (optionally) coat with cacao powder. Major swoon! We hope you LOVE these truffles.

They keep best in the refrigerator or freezer for optimal texture but travel well, too! After sharing these with a friend, she mentioned they reminded her of Tootsie Rolls in all the best ways. So consider this treat a throwback to childhood as well.
