Description
These Ferrero Rocher truffles are dairy-free, gluten-free, vegan and require no cooking, but they taste absolutely amazing. The combination of hazelnuts and chocolate is delightful.
Ingredients
- ⅓ cups Dried Fruit
- ½ cups Water
- 1 cup Ground Hazelnuts, Divided
- 2 Tablespoons Hazelnut Butter
- 4 Tablespoons Cacao Powder
- 20 whole Hazelnuts
- ½ cups Chocolate Chips
Preparation
Soak dried fruit in water for 30 minutes. Drain.
In a food processor, add half the ground hazelnuts, dried fruit, hazelnut butter, and cacao powder. Process until everything is well mixed. Let the mixture chill in the fridge for about 1 hour.
Take teaspoonfuls of the mixture, put a hazelnut inside each and form a ball. Roll the balls in remaining ground hazelnuts and put them in the freezer for 30–40 minutes to harden.
Melt the chocolate. You can use the double boiler method or do it in the microwave, stirring every 10 seconds. If there are ground hazelnuts left, add them to the melted chocolate.
Roll the balls into the melted chocolate and put them in the fridge until the chocolate cover has hardened.
