How to Prepare Raw Snickers Truffles [Vegan, Grain-Free]

  1. Blend peanuts in a food processor until they look like breadcrumbs. Add maple syrup, coconut butter, salt, and peanut butter. Keep blending until it forms a ball or stays together like a fudge.
  2. Press the mixture into the bottom of the silicon forms until each is about 1/2 full. This layer will be the top when you take them out of the forms.
  3. Make date caramel by blending dates until almost smooth. Add about 2 tablespoons warm water and keep blending. Add chopped peanuts and salt, stirring with a spoon until combined.
  4. Put the caramel and peanut layer on top of the fudge. Put in freezer for 30 minutes.
  5. Melt all the chocolate ingredients on a low heat until combined. If you want them to be raw, the temperature shouldn't go over 113°F. Take the truffles out of the freezer and add chocolate layer.
  6. Freeze it at least 2 hours before removing from mold. Keep in an airtight container in fridge for up to a couple of weeks.

  1. This recipe is not "raw", because the recipe calls for Maple Syrup and Coconut oil! Maple syrup and Coconut oil are NOT "raw" foods! Coconut oil can only be considered \’raw\’, if cold pressed Virgin Coconut Oil is used!

    Here is why…

    For a food to be considered "raw", some experts state it can not be heated up past 104°F – 120°F. Maple Syrup is boiled at around 219°F when it is being processed!

    💥 Note: Virgin Coconut Oil: Whether it is raw or not depends on the production methods, if virgin coconut oil produced by expeller pressing, centrifuged or made from coconut milk by fermentation at high temperatures it cannot be regarded as raw and not suitable for raw diets. Only cold pressed (under 40⁰C / 104⁰F) virgin coconut oil can be classified as raw.
