With Valentine’s Day coming up soon, I thought it’d be fun to make a healthier version of one of my favorite desserts – chocolate truffles. I made these chocolate almond truffles a few years back and knew it was time for another round of truffles at our house. I love chocolate truffles and thought they’d be the perfect treat to make for Valentine’s Day this year. They’re really the best chocolate truffles I personally have ever made, even without any added sugar!
Easy Chocolate Truffles Recipe
If you’re wondering how to make chocolate truffles, it’s simple. All I did was melt some chocolate in the microwave until it was cool then added all of the other ingredients.
Once you’ve mixed all the ingredients well, put them in a refrigerator and let the mixture harden for just a few minutes, but not too long or else you won’t be able to pipe them. Since I am making these for Valentine’s Day, I decided to make them into hearts rather than the standard ball truffles. To make the hearts, I drew hearts with a permanent marker on one side of a piece of parchment paper and then piped the truffle filling into the heart shapes. They don’t pipe perfectly so once they’re piped, just mold them slightly into a good heart shape with your hands. Once you’ve got all of your hearts perfectly molded, sprinkle with Valentine’s Day candies or sprinkles then refrigerate until hardened for a yummy Valentine’s Day dessert. Easy.
