Keto Chocolate Truffles
These Keto Chocolate Truffles are rich, indulgent, and super easy to make with just two ingredients and your choice of toppings. Perfect for holidays, gifting, or anytime you want an easy keto-friendly dessert.
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups sugar-free dark chocolate, chopped or chips
- ½ cup full-fat coconut cream, canned
For Rolling (Optional)
- chopped nuts
- cocoa powder
- unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- In a heat-proof bowl, add the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips.
- In a small saucepan, heat the coconut cream over medium heat until steaming and the temperature of the cream reaches 185-200°F. You want the milk to be hot enough to melt the chocolate, but not so hot that it’s boiling.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate and cover. Let sit for 5 minutes while the cream melts the chocolate.
- After 5 minutes, gently stir the cream and chocolate together until smooth, taking care not to mix in too much air. It may take some time, but you should be rewarded with a smooth, glossy ganache.
- Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours, until almost firm.
- Using a 1-inch cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out 16 uniform balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll each ball until smooth.
- Toss each truffle in your choice of toppings, like chopped nuts, powdered cocoa, or shredded coconut. Chill in the refrigerator until set, about 15-30 minutes.
Notes
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Defrost frozen truffles in the refrigerator overnight. If the truffles are quite firm set, allow them to sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes to soften slightly before serving.
