Introduction

3-Ingredient Healthy Chocolate Truffles

Who else gets peckish during holiday season? I doooo…and here’s my favorite indulgent chocolate snack that’s guilt free and so easy to make! 
The key ingredient for this recipe is amazake, a traditional Japanese beverage and a by-product of producing sake. I’ve been enjoying this drink since I was a kid as it has little to no alcohol content (…I think). It’s sooo delicious as it has a natural sweetness and creamy texture. It’s also rich in nutrients like B vitamins, amino acids, and enzymes, supports digestion and promotes gut and skin health.

Ingredients

  • Unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 tbsp.
  • Coconut oil, 2 tbsp.
  • Amazake, 1/3 cup 
Mix all three ingredients well. If it’s too dry, add a bit more amazake, and if too moist, add more cocoa powder. Taste as you go so it doesn’t get too bitter!
Coat with cocoa powder for a classic truffle.
Chill for at least 15 min. and enjoy!
