Ingredients

• 200 grams High-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
• 100 milliliters Coconut cream
• 50 grams Protein powder (chocolate or unflavored)
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
• 50 grams Nuts or seeds (optional, for coating)

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the dark chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, gently heat the coconut cream until it just starts to simmer. Do not let it boil.

Step 3

Pour the hot coconut cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Stir in the protein powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and sea salt until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

Step 5

Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 1 hour, or until it is firm enough to scoop and shape.

Step 6

Using a small melon baller or spoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and quickly roll them into small balls using your palms.

Step 7

Place the unsweetened cocoa powder in a shallow dish. Roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until fully coated.

Step 8

Alternatively, if using nuts or seeds for coating, finely chop them and roll the truffles in them after the cocoa powder step.

Step 9

Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Step 10

Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy the decadent and protein-packed treat!
