Allergen-Free Truffles

Alergen-Free Truffles  Making treats for friends and fam who have food allergies can be tough, especially when you have to take a couple of different allergies into consideration. Luckily, these truffles are gluten-free and penut-free. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

Recipe makes about 30 truffles

4 oz. dairy free dark chocolate

¼ cup rice milk

Optional: 1 teaspoon additional flavoring, like espresso powder or vanilla extract

For coatings: cocoa powder, colored sugar, sprinkles

Directions:

1. Melt chocolate, rice milk and any optional flavoring in a double boiler (that’s a heat-proof bowl set inside a saucepan containing boiling water). Stir until all ingredients are combined and smooth.

2. Remove bowl from double boiler, cover and refrigerate until firm.

3. Use a teaspoon to roll chocolate mixture into small, evenly sized balls.

4. Roll in desired coatings. For Valentine’s Day, we love heart-shaped sprinkles, pink and red colored sugar and classic cocoa powder.

Place your truffles in a large Tupperware box lined with festive cellophane, secure the lid and top with a note detailing the ingredients—just in case! Refrigerate when you’re now chowing down.
