How to Prepare Raw Chocolate Easter Truffles [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make the Filling:

  1. Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor until they're sticky enough to roll into balls.
  2. Place the balls in the freezer to cool while preparing the chocolate.
  3. Chop or blend some almonds to add to the coating at the end.

To Make the Coating:

  1. In a glass or ceramic bowl gently melt the cocoa paste, cocoa butter, agave, salt, and vanilla at low temperature.
  2. Stir the mix thoroughly until nice and glossy then allow to cool until it's nice and thick but still warm enough and runny enough to dip the cold balls in.
  3. Dip each ball into the mix individually then remove them with a fork so that the excess can drip off before rolling them in the crushed almonds.
  4. Place the balls onto baking paper and repeat until you have used all the balls.
  5. Refrigerate them until they're firm.
