Superfood Dark Chocolate Truffles

Author: Lisa Le

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cocoa butter or coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp spirulina powder
  • 1 tsp protein powder I used soy protein isolate but you could use Vega or Sun Warrior too
  • 1 tbsp goji berries processed into fine powder (or 1 1/2 tsp goji berry powder)
  • 1 tsp soy milk powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch himalayan salt

Instructions

  • Over a double boiler (or a heat-safe bowl over a pot with water) over medium low heat, melt the cocoa powder until you have a several unmelted bits left. Remove from the heat and continue stirring until cocoa butter is all melted.
  • Pour into food processor and add cocoa powder, spirulina powder, protein powder, goji berry powder, soy milk powder, maple syrup, and himalayan salt. Process until even. Have a taste test, if you like it adjust by adding more sugar/maple syrup. You may need to add more of the solids (protein powder, spirulina, goji berry powder—but you could also add other powders like maca powder, açai powder, wheatgrass powder, etc.).
  • Once it tastes good, pour into chocolate moulds, scrape off excess and level, then chill for 1-2 hours until set.
  • Remove from moulds, store in fridge. Enjoy!
