Keto Ferrero Rocher Chocolate Truffles

desserts recipes May 08, 2019

When I was growing up, Ferrero Rocher chocolates were my favorite candies to indulge in during Christmas time (or any holiday for that matter).

I remember my mom would buy a huge box at Costco for her Christmas party each year and would have to hide them from me. 🙈

These low-carb, keto mock Ferrero Rocher Chocolate Truffles are seriously on point! They're delicious, super easy to make, and perfect for any holiday party or Valentine's day treat ;)

Ingredients

For the hazelnut dough balls:

½ cup almond butter (or nut butter of choice, preferably hazelnut butter)
1 cup (~36 grams) Chocolate Collagen Powder (or protein powder of choice)
10 tablespoons almond flour or 4-5 tablespoons coconut flour

For the chocolate crumb coating:

2 ounces, >90% dark chocolate, chopped
½ tablespoon coconut oil
dash of sweetener, optional
2 Cocoa Almond Stoka Bars (or you can use crushed hazelnuts)

Instructions

In a small microwave-safe bowl, add almond butter and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or until liquid consistency.
In a medium bowl, add the melted almond butter, chocolate collagen powder, almond flour, coconut milk, vanilla extract, sea salt, and cinnamon. Mix well until dough forms.
Scoop about a tablespoon of dough into your hand and form it around one hazelnut, until completely covered. Place hazelnut dough ball onto a plate or baking sheet. Continue with the remaining hazelnuts and dough until you have 18 total hazelnut dough balls. Refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes or until solid.
Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, add dark chocolate and coconut oil. Melt in the microwave in 30-second increments until melted and smooth. Taste and add sweetener if desired.
Crush Stoka bars into crumbs and place on a large plate.
Remove hazelnut dough balls from the refrigerator. With a fork, add one ball to the melted chocolate and coat fully. Shake off excess chocolate and place into the Stoka crumbs. Using your hand, coat all sides with crumbs and return to plate or baking sheet.
Refrigerate coated truffles for 20 to 30 minutes (or freeze for half the time). Enjoy!
