Vegan Truffles - Recipe

Ingredients 
300g Dark Chocolate
1 Tin of Coconut Milk
2 Teaspoons Coconut Oil
Pinch of Sea Salt
Desiccated Coconut
Cacao Powder

To begin with place the coconut milk into a pan and put on a low heat until it starts to boil, whilst this is on the hob you can start to break up the dark chocolate and place in a large bowl along with 2 teaspoons of coconut oil and a pinch of salt. Once the coconut milk has started to boil take it of the heat and pour over the other ingredients in the bowl, then mix continuously until the dark chocolate has melted. Now you can pop clingfilm over the bowl and place the mixture into the fridge overnight or for at least a few hours. Once it has set take of the clingfilm and you can start to roll chunks of the chocolatey mixture into small balls. Next take the decorations of your choice (I chose cacao powder and desicated coconut) and roll the truffles in your chosen toppings until fully covered. Once you have finished all that is left to do is enjoy!

This is definitely my favourite recipe this holiday season, not only are these truffles the perfect snack they also make an amazing homemade gift, wrapped up in a festive box with a lovely red ribbon on top!
