Date, Cocoa & Dark Chocolate Truffles
I hope everyone is doing well 🤍
I shared photos with a healthy date truffle recipe, along with a little story about how it came to me. You can read the story if you’d like, or jump straight to the recipe and try it out.
For a long time, I wasn’t very active. Then life shifted, and suddenly I was moving again - biking, practicing, using my body every day. With that came cravings. Strong ones. Croissants, sweets, anything quick and comforting.
There’s nothing wrong with enjoying those things once in a while especially on a cute coffee dates or a slow morning. But when the cravings started feeling constant, almost frantic, I knew my body was just asking for fuel it wasn’t used to needing yet.
That’s when I came across the idea of date truffles and decided to make them intuitively, without measurements, just by feel. To my surprise, they became a small anchor. The cacao balances the natural sweetness of the dates so well that even people who “don’t like sweet things” ended up loving them.
These truffles ended up replacing those intense sugar cravings. More than that, they brought me back into cooking, into caring for myself, and into sharing something simple and nourishing with others. They’re easy to make, made from healthy ingredients, not overly sweet, and genuinely satisfying.
If you try them, let me know what you think 🖤
