I love truffles. Seriously, I could eat truffles every day for the rest of my life and never get bored with them! With that said, I typically don’t make them at home because I always thought it would be hard to make them. Well, I am changing my mind about that today!
Check out this recipe which is courtesy of Coco Joy. I think they look delicious and they look super easy to make! The recipe makes 8 servings.

I love that this is such an easy recipe to make. It would be perfect for an emergency dessert too. I also appreciate that this recipe is healthier than most truffle recipes.
Well, that does sound pretty easy. I think I could do that, lol. I love coconut, so I’ll give it a try.
I think I could maybe eat truffles every other day. Have to give it some rest. These look very yummy.
Thanks so much for this rec. I too love truffles and we are making candy this week and I can’t wait to try a batch!
I like this recipe and all the nuts are so good for you. I have made many truffles and sent them in the mail. They hold up well since they’re a little compact ball. I look forward to trying the maple syrup in this recipe–yum.
