These are great to have in your freezer for chocolate emergencies or a late afternoon snack.
This one is also egg-free, which does not happen very often in grain-free treats. The finer you grind up the coconut flakes the smoother the truffle will be.
Although the coconut gives them a little bit of crunch and texture.

Stephanie H. says
Rather than using coconut flakes and grinding them in the food processor, do you think coconut butter would work?
Stacey says
Stephanie, I think coconut butter would work in there as well. They would probably be even more creamy with that option.
