Raw Cocoa Truffles
- 3/4 cup tahini
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 6 dates, pitted and soaked in water for 10 minutes
- 1/3 cup raw cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- Place all ingredients in a food processor and process for 1-2 minutes, until everything is completely combined.
- Place mixture in a bowl and scoop out, 1 tablespoon at a time and roll into balls. Continue until all of the mixture has been rolled into balls (roll each ball between your palms for 10-15 seconds so that the balls are round and uniform).
- You can either leave them like this (they are super yummy plain) or you can coat them in sugar (as pictured). To do this, place some sugar on a plate and roll the truffles in sugar until they are coasted evenly.
- Place truffles in the refrigerator and refrigerate for 2 hours.
