Chocolate is a guilty pleasure of mine. I love sweets and if they're healthy and raw it's a win win. The holidays are coming and there is nothing better than a little box of these sweet babies to share a gift or make as a treat for everyone to indulge. I'm all about a good time, fabulous party or gift ideas. This is my famous raw almond cacao truffle recipe.

What You'll Need: 2 cups raw pistachios 1/4 cup cacao powder plus some for dusting 1/4 tsp of Himalayan Sea Salt 12 dates 4-6 tbsp raw nut milk 1 drop cinnamon essential oil How To Make Them: Blend pistachios, cacao, and salt in a food processor unlike it forms a meal-like quality. Incorporate the dates and pulse until well combined. Slowly add the nut milk to the mixture until everything pulls together. Next, you can either use a teaspoon or a smaller cookie scoop to form balls. Lay them out on a waxed cookie sheet and freeze for 45 minutes. Once they are solid dust in cacao powder. Wrap them up as a gift or serve and delight your friends. I have just given you my favorite truffle recipe. Are you a chocolate lover? What's your favorite kind of truffle?
