Easy Almond Joy Truffles Recipe

These truffles feature a creamy coconut center coated in rich chocolate and topped with a whole almond. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and makes approximately 12 truffles.

Ingredients

1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup almond butter or creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chips
12 whole almonds for topping
1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for melting chocolate)

Instructions

Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded coconut, almond butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Form the Truffles: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill: Refrigerate the truffles for about 15-20 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Coat the Truffles: Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place them back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Top with Almonds: Press a whole almond into the top of each truffle before the chocolate sets.
Chill Again: Return the truffles to the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Serve: Enjoy these delicious Almond Joy Truffles as a sweet treat or dessert!
