GRAB THE RECIPE HERE:

INGREDIENTS
2 8 oz good quality dark chocolate, chopped (Anything around 60% is perfect)
1 cup full fat coconut milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Flavour add ins:
¼ teaspoon peppermint extract or more to taste
¼ teaspoon chili powder or more to taste

For ganache coating:
1 cup dark chocolate chopped
1 teaspoon coconut oil
sea salt

Topping suggestions:
Gold flakes
Sprinkles
Crushed pistachios (or nuts of choice)
Unsweetened flaked coconut

INSTRUCTIONS:

For the truffles:
Chop the dark chocolate, place it in a bowl and set it aside.
Heat coconut milk in a saucepan over mediumhigh heat. Once the milk starts to bubble around the edges, remove it from the heat and pour it over the chopped chocolate. (Milk should be hot, but not boiling).
Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes, then stir the chocolate and milk together until the chocolate has melted. Separate the mixture into 2 separate bowls (shallow bowls work best).
Stir peppermint extract into one bowl and chili powder into the other.
Do a quick taste test with your finger and see if you can taste enough of the flavour add ins. If not, add an additional ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract in one and a pinch of chili powder in the other. Cover each bowl with plastic wrap. The plastic wrap should be directly touching the chocolate in order to avoid condensation.
Chill in the fridge for 2 hours to solidify.

To assemble:
Remove the truffle mixture from the refrigerator and wait 510 minutes for it to soften. While that's happening, make the chocolate ganache. Melt the remaining dark chocolate and coconut oil together in the microwave in 30 second increments.
Use a tablespoon measuring spoon to scoop the ganache, then use your hands to roll it into a ball and drop it into the bowl with the melted chocolate. Use a fork to coat it, then carefully remove it and place it into a parchmentlined baking sheet or plate, and immediately sprinkle it with your desired toppings. Repeat this process until all of the ganache is gone.
Store truffles in the refrigerator for up to 5 days
