Time 4h10m

Yield 30 to 35 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 8

2/3 cup Cashew Cream, recipe follows
2 cups (12 ounces) 41-percent cocoa vegan chocolate chips
1 teaspoon agave syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Zest of 1/2 medium orange
Topping suggestions: Finely chopped pistachio nuts, cocoa powder, vegan chocolate chips, finely chopped crystallized ginger
1 cup water
1 cup raw, unsalted cashews

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, combine the cashew cream and chocolate chips. Place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering hot water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the agave syrup, vanilla and orange zest. Refrigerate the mixture until firm, about 1 hour.
  • With a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon-size round measuring spoon, spoon out the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. With damp hands, roll the mixture into balls and return to the baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Roll the truffles in your desired toppings and serve.
  • In a small bowl, combine the water and cashews. Let soak for at least 2 hours or overnight at room temperature.
  • In a blender, blend the cashews and water at high speed until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute.

These are the perfect vegan truffles! They're so easy to make and they taste amazing. I love that they're made with healthy ingredients too.

These were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a little bit more coconut oil.

These were surprisingly good! I'm not a vegan, but I'm always looking for new and interesting recipes. These were really easy to make and they turned out great. I'll definitely be making them again.

Not a fan. I thought these were too bland. I won't be making them again.

These are the best vegan truffles I've ever had! They're so creamy and chocolatey, and they have the perfect amount of sweetness. I'll definitely be making these again and again.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

Not bad for a vegan truffle. I'm not a vegan, but I'm always looking for new and interesting recipes. These were pretty good, but I think I would have preferred them with a little bit of dairy in them.

Easy to make and delicious! I used dark chocolate and they turned out perfect. Will definitely make these again.

These vegan truffles were a delight! The texture was smooth and creamy, and the chocolate flavor was rich and decadent. I loved the addition of the coconut oil, which gave them a lovely sheen. I will definitely be making these again!
