Description

Delicious chocolate hazelnut truffles that are easy to make and perfect for a sweet treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 1 cup finely crushed graham crackers (or gluten-free alternative)
  • 1 cup finely chopped toasted hazelnuts
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder or additional chopped hazelnuts, for coating

Instructions

  1. Toast the hazelnuts (optional but recommended): If you haven’t bought pre-toasted hazelnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and roast in a 350°F oven for about 8–10 minutes, until fragrant. Let them cool and chop finely.

  2. Mix the base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate hazelnut spread, crushed graham crackers, ¾ cup of the chopped toasted hazelnuts, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir until everything is evenly incorporated. The mixture should be thick and sticky.

  3. Chill the dough: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 20–30 minutes to firm up slightly. This makes rolling much easier.

  4. Roll into truffles: Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it between your hands into small balls.

  5. Coat your truffles: Roll each ball in either cocoa powder or the remaining chopped hazelnuts. If you want to get creative, try shredded coconut or powdered sugar for variety.

  6. Chill and store: Place the finished truffles on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

  • Try using different coatings for the truffles, such as shredded coconut or powdered sugar for a unique twist.
