Sweet Tuesday!

Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles

Need I say more??!

So in light of my last post (Food Friday) I thought I would share a great recipe that utilizes the healthy sugar challenge.  This recipe calls for the use of honey and there is nothing better than raw local honey. 

I found this recipe via Taylor Made It Paleo and they are double D'lish! 


Recipe for the truffles: 
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1 cup almond butter (or sunflower seed butter) 
2 tsp coconut oil, melted
1 Tbsp honey
2 tsp vanilla
 1/2 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips

For the Chocolate Coating: 
1/2 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips 
1 tbsp coconut oil
  1. Combine all truffle ingredients in a medium sized bowl until everything is well incorporated.
  2. Roll into bite sized balls and set on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
  3. Allow to harden in freezer for about 15-20 minutes.
  4. About five minutes before you take the truffles out, prepare your chocolate coating by melting chocolate and coconut oil in a small saucepan on LOW heat, stirring often so it doesn’t burn.
  5. Once melted, take chocolate off heat and use a toothpick to dip the truffles, covering them completely (If you have a hole left on the top, simply cover with more chocolate using a spoon). If you don’t want to cover them completely, you could also just use a spoon to drizzle a little chocolate over each one.
  6. Once covered, place truffles back on the wax paper and allow chocolate to harden in the fridge/freezer.
  7. Consume!
  8. NOTE: These should be kept in the fridge/freezer or they will melt pretty quickly!
Enjoy!  I will definitely be enjoying these post 21 day Purification:)
