About Recipe:

These dark chocolate covered toasted coconut truffles are simple, and abundant with healthy fats from coconut, minerals from date and polyphenols from the dark chocolate. They are a sweet treat, that you can feel good about the ingredients. I love having these after a meal with a hot chai tea. Comment below if you make it! I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback :)
