Vegetable truffles

4 servings

25 minutes

Plant-based truffles are an exquisite treat inspired by French pastry tradition but adapted for lovers of natural ingredients. These truffles contain no sugar or cream, and their rich flavor is achieved through a blend of walnuts, sweet dates, and aromatic cocoa. Almonds hidden in the center of each ball add a crunchy note, deepening the taste further. The history of such delicacies dates back to ancient times when nuts and dried fruits were the basis of sweets. These truffles are perfect as a refined dessert for tea or coffee and can also make a wonderful heartfelt gift. Their texture is soft and velvety, while the rich chocolate flavor pairs beautifully with the natural sweetness of dates.
