Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (225 g / 7.9 oz) full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (60 g / 2.12 oz) smooth hazelnut butter
  • 1/4 cup (25 g / 0.88 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) sugar-free hazelnut syrup
  • 2-3 tbsp (24-36 g / 1.27 oz) powdered keto sweetener, to taste
  • 1/2 cup (50 g / 1.76 oz) ground hazelnuts, for rolling
  • For a super smooth, lump-free texture, ensure your cream cheese is truly at room temperature before mixing.
  • If the truffle mixture feels too soft to roll, chill it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to help it firm up.
  • Use a powdered sweetener instead of granular to avoid a gritty texture. Adjust the amount to your personal preference after tasting the mixture.
  • Swap the hazelnut coating for shredded coconut, finely chopped pecans, or an extra dusting of cocoa powder for a different flavor profile.

Method
 

  1. Preparation
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, hazelnut butter, cocoa powder, sugar-free syrup, and powdered sweetener.
  3. Mix with a spoon or an electric hand mixer on low speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and fully incorporated.
  4. Spread the ground hazelnuts onto a small plate or in a shallow bowl.
  5. Scoop the chocolate mixture, using about one tablespoon for each truffle, and roll between your palms to form 16 uniform balls.
  6. Gently roll each ball in the ground hazelnuts until it is completely coated.
  7. Place the finished truffles on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours to allow them to firm up before serving.
