What are Coconut Cocoa Truffles?

These coconut cocoa truffles are a blend of four ingredients including coconut, cocoa powder, sugar, and soy milk.

These truffles are perfect for those who adore the combination of chocolate and coconut.

Pro Tips

• Stir the ingredients together until they are evenly combined to ensure that the mixture is easy to shape into truffles.
• If you find that the truffle mixture is a little too wet, you can add extra cocoa powder to help it bind together.
• If you think that the truffle mixture is too dry, you can add additional soy milk to the mixture.
• If preferred, you could replace the soy milk with dairy milk instead. However, other plant-based milks will work as well.
• For an extra coconut flavour, you can use coconut milk in the truffles instead of soy milk.
• For other garnishes, feel free to roll the truffles into cocoa powder, chocolate sprinkles, or chopped nuts.
