Servings: 12-15 truffles

These truffles are delicious, easy to make and packed with delicious and nutritious ingredients to help keep you energised through the Christmas period.  They will keep for up to two weeks in a container in the fridge.

Let’s talk chocolate – the cacao, cocoa powder and chocolate are loaded with antioxidants including polyphenols, flavanols and catechins.  They are also full of magnesium which is important for cardiovascular health.
