How To Recipe A Chocolate Truffle

  How To Recipe A Chocolate Truffle 

For this recipe you're going to need some unsweetened cocoa powder some raw almonds raw goji berries Medrol dates and some hot water on the side you're going to be using six Medrol dates you'll just want to make sure that you deep hit them before you put them in the food processor your truffles will not taste delicious if you have the pits in it so be sure to D pit them next you're going to take your raw almonds I'm going to be using about one cup of raw almonds for this recipe so I'm just putting that right into the food processor along with the Medrol dates our next ingredient is our unsweetened cocoa powder I'm going to be using about half a quarter of a cup I mean into this recipe and you will want to have some extra on the side for us to roll them in afterwards and now I'm just pouring at the hot water about two tablespoons into the mixture and popping on the lid so we can get blending I'm gonna be putting mine on low first and then high you just want to make sure that you're grounding up all the almonds so that they're not too chunky but you want to just keep blending until it kind of forms a bowl and this is what your mixture should look like so now I'm just spooning it with a tablespoon here just using a little bit of water on the side.

 So it doesn't stick to my hand too much but your hands will get dirty so just make sure you wash them beforehand and I'm just rolling them all in one inch kind of sized balls trying to keep them all the same if possible and you have a little scale that really helps because then you can make sure that they're all the exact same size but either way these are going to be delicious so I'm sure your significant other whoever you're giving these to won't mind and here's what they should look like when you're done next you're going to take your goji berries and now I have about a quarter of a cup the rap but you're just gonna add a little bit at a time to your nutribullet or your coffee grinder I'm using this milling attachment that my nutribullet comes with so I'm just gonna pop on the lid like I said you only want to start with a little bit of goji berries or they're just gonna all clump up and they won't be a nice fine powder.

 So I like to pulse it for about 10 to 15 seconds and then you'll get a nice ground finally powder like this here so I'm just going to spread that on a plate and spring cups any large bits that have clumped up and you're just gonna take your chocolate date truffles and roll them into the goji powder like so and once again we're just gonna go in some fast mode here so you guys don't have to wait too long to watch me rolling the balls but realistically I just had some music on and this didn't take much time at all to just quickly uncover them in the powder coating this is what they look like so delicious and so pretty and Valentine's Eve with the red goji berry coating now for the second coating for our truffles we're going to be using the unsweetened cocoa powder again.

 SO I'm just going to lightly dust my plate here and spread it out evenly and once again you're just gonna roll your truffles into the coating and just coat them evenly as you can see once I coat them I kind of just stamp them on the side because the cocoa powder is really light and loose it just helps not make a mess when you're plating it afterwards and here is the finished product hopefully this is what your troubles will look like once you're done coating them in your goji berry cocoa powder now I'm going to be using these really cute mini muffin holder cup things I just got these from the dollar store super cheap and then I also got these heart-shaped little tin boxes I want to add the cardboard ones then I found these and they were on sale at bulk bran for like a dollar fifty so really great value and you get three of them so you're just gonna put your little love bite truffles in the mini muffin holders and I'm just doing this for all of them filling them up and getting ready to put into my heart-shaped box and now comes the fun part you're just going to fill up your heart-shaped tin box whatever container you have and I just think this is such a really cute idea to give to somebody you care about on Valentine's Day and there you have it your delicious love bite truffles perfect to give to someone special on Valentine's Day or even just treat yourself there's nothing wrong with .
