Description

Decadent cocoa-caramel truffles rolled in raspberry powder. A perfect no-bake treat for any occasion.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups (411 ml) freeze dried raspberries
  • 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) Medjool dates (pitted)
  • 1/3 cup (79 ml) tahini
  • 1/4 cup (59 ml) cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons water or raspberry liqueur
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Process raspberries into a powder using a food processor or blender, or hand-crush them in a bag with a rolling pin.
  2. Pour raspberry powder into a bowl and set aside.
  3. In a blender, combine dates, tahini, cocoa, water or raspberry liqueur, and vanilla; blend until smooth.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a covered container and chill in the refrigerator or freezer for at least one hour.
  5. Scoop out small portions of the chilled mixture and roll into 3/4-inch balls.
  6. Roll the balls in the raspberry powder to coat completely.
  7. Place the truffles in an airtight container and freeze for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  8. Store leftover truffles in the freezer for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
  • If the mixture is too sticky to roll, chill it for a longer period.
  • To prevent the truffles from sticking to your hands, lightly grease your palms with oil.
