These creamy raw vegan truffles are the easiest Valentine’s Day treat to make! Choose from a 3 different kinds of raw truffles: chocolate truffle, raspberry truffle or pistachio truffle. Better yet, treat yourself to all three! Rich, chocolatey truffles that are raw, vegan, gluten-free, paleo, sugar-free, and nut-free (except the pistachio one).











I am trying hard to cut down on the amount of sugar I eat. Over the holidays, I went on a sugar overload, and then participating in the vegan bake sale last week didn’t help matters. With all the recipe testing and cookie baking I’ve done lately, I wanted to make a delicious chocolate dessert without any added sugar. Enter raw vegan truffles.

Valentine’s Day is just a few days away. Maybe you’ve got plans with your significant other. Maybe you’ve got plans with a wine bottle like I do. Either way, these creamy, chocolatey vegan truffles are the perfect Valentine’s Day dessert. These truffles come together in just 5 minutes – it took longer to photograph them than it did to make! Looks like it’ll be wine and truffles for me.

The center of these decadent truffles requires only 2 ingredients, dates and cacao powder. No added sugar what so ever. Just blend them in a food processor until it balls up. Then scoop out in about 1/2 tablespoon chunks and roll into a ball. The center of the truffle is the same for all three kinds; it’s the coating that changes the flavor. For the coating, I chose to make some extra chocolatey with more cacao powder, then some nutty ones with crushed pistachios and finally some fruity truffles with freeze-dried raspberries. They’re festive for Valentine’s Day, but I foresee myself eating these truffles all year round.
