Ingredients
Basic Filling
- 4 ounces 100% cacao unsweetened baking chocolate or raw cacao paste (118 grams)
- 1⁄2 c unsweetened coconut milk, as thick as possible
- Lite coconut milk and coconut milk beverage in a carton will not work, as they are too thin. - 11⁄4 to 11⁄2 c Just Like Sugar Table Top natural chicory root sweetener (not Baking).
- I do not recommend any other sweetener for the filling.
- I like truffles moderately sweet. If you like them quite sweet, use the larger amount of sweetener. - 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
