- 1/2 of a 1.25oz bag freeze-dried raspberries

- Whisk until smooth.
- Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
- While the mixture is chilling, pulse the freeze-dried raspberries in a food processor until powdery. Add the powder to a shallow dish. In another dish, add cocoa powder.
- Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or a silpat.
- Once the truffle filling is solidified, you can begin to scoop. Scoop out the truffles using a spoon and roll into 1" balls. This can get messy, but you can also spray your hands with nonstick spray or wear gloves to do the dirty work.
- Roll half of the balls in the cocoa powder and the other half in the raspberry dust and place on your prepared cookie tray.
- Chill for another 30 minutes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
