Raw Chocolate Coconut Truffles

August 25, 2010

Coco-Choco Truffles

These truffles are amazing and made with real raw cacao powder which is filled with anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals.  Also, raw chocolate is one of the best sources of magnesium!

2 cups cashews (soaked overnight in water), drained

8-9 tablespoons raw cacao powder (look for in your local health food store or Whole Foods)

10 large Medjool dates, pitted

1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

2 T. agave nectar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Blend all of the above ingredients in a food processor until smooth, scraping the sides of the container several times.  Then roll tablespoon-sized scoops into balls and roll in coconut to create the coconut coating.
