Cardamom Cacao Coconut Truffles

Dark, rich and a little bit festive: these chocolate coconut truffles have a warm hint of cardamom and are fully vegan. They take 20 minutes to make, then an hour in the fridge, and look lovely in a Diwali gift box.

Ingredients:-

• 100 ml coconut whipping cream
• ⅓ cup cacao powder
• 1 cup desiccated coconut, plus extra to roll
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave syrup)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
• 2 tablespoons cacao nibs, to roll

Directions:-

1. Gently warm the coconut cream, coconut oil and maple syrup.
2. Whisk in the cacao and cardamom until glossy.
3. Stir in the coconut and chill for 1 hour until firm.
4. Roll into balls and coat in coconut or cacao nibs.
