4 servings
40 minutes
The recipe is taken from the book "Happy Recipes" by Marika Kravtsova. "Love for truffles is one of the reasons for my interest in healthy eating. Once I read the information about the composition on a box of delicious candies and at that moment I decided to cook them only myself from understandable products. For the book we prepared three versions: basic chocolate, pumpkin and elegant with beetroot juice
