Three Ingredient Paleo Chocolate Truffles
Description
The recipe starts by gently heating coconut cream over medium-high heat until simmering at the edges. Chopped dark chocolate is whisked into the hot cream to melt smoothly, forming a glossy ganache. Maple syrup is then added to sweeten the mixture. After cooling, the ganache is refrigerated for several hours to set firmly enough to shape. Once chilled, the chocolate mixture is scooped into uniform balls and rolled into rounds by hand.
For added flavor and visual appeal, the truffles may be coated in crushed freeze-dried strawberries, which provide a crunchy, fruity exterior that contrasts the creamy interior. These truffles embody a minimalist approach using paleo-friendly ingredients without any additives, resulting in indulgent yet simple chocolate treats.
