You can spend a fortune in a specialty store for truffles like these but why throw your money away.

Remember when truffles first came out?  They were so elegant and expensive!  Still are for that matter.

Well, the secret got out that you could actually make them at home.  There is no baking with this recipe either so that is a bonus.

Cashew Butter Chocolate Truffles is another great truffle recipe.  They are chocolaty and creamy.

By the way, did you know you could make your own homemade kahlua?  It’s so easy and there are only four ingredients.  There is some time in letting it set but so very worth it.

  2. Would love a suggestion for soy milk powder. I hace to order rare ingredients like this online and it wont arrive in time for xmas…

  11. No problem MacKenzie! Yes, there is a gluten-free chocolate graham cracker. I saw them at Sprouts – Annie’s Homegrown, Gluten Free Bunny Cookies, Cocoa. I am sure they are other places too. Maybe Trader Joe’s. I hope you can find them.

  12. Hi Ginny. Sorry to be “that person” but is there any way to make these gluten-free too? I am not GF, but I’d love to take these to a potluck in a few weeks, and I know some of my colleagues are. I’m thinking maybe I’ll try to find GF graham crackers? Thanks!

  16. Ha! This looks like it would be a lot of fun to make. After all, there’s Kalua. Can’t go wrong with that! Love how you neatly placed the truffles in the bowl so perfectly too lol.

  20. Are you kidding me? Dates, pecans and kahlua! You’re gonna make me blow my diet because these are the most awesome looking truffles ever!

  37. That is a hard one. I do’t think this recipe can have a substitution – raisins would be the closest. The dates hold the truffles together and add their sweetness.
