Raw Nirvana Truffles


This is a recipe that will allow you to indulge without guilt! In fact, you will be able to nourish your body and protect it from premature aging and degenerative disease.

Like many other recipes on this blog, this is a frugal recipe. It will help you to save money since one of the main ingredients is the almond pulp that remains after you made raw almond milk

I called these sweets Nirvana Truffles. To find out why, you will have to make them and taste them yourself. 

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups Medjool dates, soaked in water overnight
  • 1 cup dried sour cherries, soaked in water overnight
  • 2 cups leftover almond pulp  (add more if needed)
  • 1 tsp pink Himalayan salt
  • 2 Tbsp powdered chia seeds
  • 2 Tbsp powdered supergreens
  • 2 Tbsp açai powder
  • 1 cup raw cacao powder
  • 1 cup virgin coconut oil  
  • 1/2 cup raw coconut flakes
  • 1/2 tsp powdered cloves
  • about 1/2 raw coconut flakes for garnish

Method:
  • Using a food processor blend all the ingredients into a firm dough. Allow the dough to rest for about 15 minutes.
  • Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the dough and roll it between your palms to form perfectly round truffles.
  • Toss coconut flakes into a bowl. Roll each truffle in coconut making sure that it is well coated. Set each truffle on a platter. 
  • Place the platter in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Enjoy without guilt in good company!


Remember, your truffles can only be as good as the ingredients you are using.
