Is there anything better than an easy, no-bake, dessert? Nope.

I'm sure you will absolutely LOVE these chocolate truffles!

They are:

really easy to make.
rich and creamy.
super chocolaty.
intensely delicious.                                                                                                  

Here's what you’ll need:

good quality bittersweet or semisweet chocolate (just make sure it's vegan)
raw cashews
water

That’s it! Just 3 ingredients!

Optional Coatings

I love coating these truffles in unsweetened cocoa powder, chopped nuts or shredded coconut. I usually use Dutch-processed cocoa powder, because it's not as bitter as natural cocoa powder, but feel free to use whatever you like. If you want to know the difference between Dutch-processed cocoa powder and natural cocoa powder, you can read my post here.

HOW TO MAKE VEGAN CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

STEP 1: MELT THE CHOCOLATE

First, place the chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl, preferably glass. Put the bowl over a pot of just simmering water. Make sure the bowl DOES NOT TOUCH the water! Stir until melted. Remove the bowl from the pot and set aside to cool.

Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in 10 second increments in the microwave.

STEP 2: MAKE THE CREAM

Then place the raw cashews and the water in a food processor or a blender. Blend everything until it’s smooth and creamy.

STEP 3: STIR THE MIXTURE INTO THE MELTED CHOCOLATE

After that, gently stir the vegan cream into the melted chocolate with a spatula or a spoon until combined.

STEP 4: REFRIGERATE

Then, cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator overnight.

STEP 5: ROLL INTO BALLS

Wear gloves or dust your hands with unsweetened cocoa powder, if you don’t mind getting a bit messy!  Using a teaspoon, take out a small amount of the mixture and roll into a small ball. Work quickly so it doesn’t melt. Then roll in unsweetened cocoa powder, shredded coconut, or chopped walnuts.

P.S.: Warning! These truffles are extremely addictive! You won’t be able to eat just one! You can’t say I didn’t warn you!
