12/7/2014 0 Comments Cocoa-Oat TrufflesI love sweet little things disguising a healthy treat! These truffles are great when you want something bad but are being good. I've given these as gifts to healthy friends and they have been well received. The almond butter with the dates makes it not too "fruity" tasting and more sweet; the oats make it more satisfying! 
Cocoa-Oat Truffles
Whole Foods A combo of cocoa, oats, dates, almond butter and spices makes for naturally sweet treats, a healthier alternative during the holiday sweets season. Ingredients:

Add dates, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, almond butter, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon and process until finely ground and sticking together. Place remaining cocoa powder in a shallow bowl. Roll truffle mixture into balls about 2 teaspoons each, pressing firmly for mixture to stick together. Roll truffles in cocoa powder and chill until ready to serve.

Our favorite chocolate maker operates out of a pizza place in Walker's Point, Milwaukee!... Atomic Chocolate is the amazing creation of Sean Henninger of Times Square Pizza. We were lucky enough to get a lesson from him in truffles at The National.
11/27/2014 0 Comments Date and Almond TrufflesThis is a great treat for healthy people. The taste is very rich and sweet but isn't terribly fattening. I prefer to make it with coconut that is chopped finer than the variety in the photo (the bigger chunks are very difficult to roll!).  Cooking Light
