Irresistible Vegan Chocolate Truffles
Print RecipeIngredients
- 8 ounces dairy-free cream cheese (such as Tofutti®)
- 3 cups confectioners' sugar
- 12 ounces vegan chocolate chips, melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for rolling)
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional, for rolling)
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds (optional, for rolling)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk or beat the dairy-free cream cheese until it’s silky smooth.
Gradually mix in the confectioners' sugar, stirring or beating until fully incorporated and creamy.
Pour in the melted vegan chocolate and vanilla extract—blend everything together just until smooth and well mixed.
Refrigerate the mixture for about 1 hour to firm up.
Once chilled, scoop out portions and roll into 1-inch balls.
Coat each truffle by rolling in cocoa powder, shredded coconut, or chopped almonds, as desired.
Transfer finished truffles to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
Tips:
For best results, ensure your cream cheese is softened at room temperature before starting. If you like a firmer truffle, chill the mixture longer before shaping. Get creative with coatings—try crushed pistachios, freeze-dried raspberries, or brightly colored sprinkles for a fun touch. These truffles also make a wonderful edible gift when packed in decorative boxes or jars.
