Allergen-free dark chocolate truffles


Making treats for friends and fam who have food allergies can be tough, especially when you have to take a couple of different allergies into consideration. At GL HQ, we’ve got one chica who’s gluten free and another who’s lactose intolerant and allergic to nuts. Come Valentine’s Day, though, I know which treat we’ll be digging into. The truffles below are goodies everyone can eat. They’re free of the major eight allergens, allowing you, your friends, your fam and all your classmates to indulge in the sweetest day of the year. Enjoy!


Ingredients:

Recipe makes about 30 truffles


4 oz. dairy free dark chocolate

¼ cup rice milk

Optional: 1 teaspoon additional flavoring, like espresso powder or vanilla extract

For coatings: cocoa powder, colored sugar, sprinkles


Directions:


1. Melt chocolate, rice milk and any optional flavoring in a double boiler (that’s a heat-proof bowl set inside a saucepan containing boiling water). Stir until all ingredients are combined and smooth.


2. Remove bowl from double boiler, cover and refrigerate until firm.


3. Use a teaspoon to roll chocolate mixture into small, evenly sized balls.


4. Roll in desired coatings. For Valentine’s Day, we love heart-shaped sprinkles, pink and red colored sugar and classic cocoa powder.



Place your truffles in a large Tupperware box lined with festive cellophane, secure the lid and top with a note detailing the ingredients—just in case! Refrigerate when you’re now chowing down.
