What you need for these Brownie Butter Truffles!

  • chickpeas
  • almond butter
  • pure maple syrup
  • almond milk
  • vanilla extract
  • almond flour
  • cocoa powder
  • dairy free chocolate chips
  • coconut oil
  • salt

Y’all I have done it again! And by it I mean used chickpeas in a deliciously decadent dessert. Chickpeas are the main ingredient of these truffles and they work absolutely perfectly in this recipe! Next up is the almond butter. You could use any creamy nut butter here, but I love almond butter with brownies and brownie like desserts. I think the almond and cocoa flavor just work best together! The rest of the batter consists of maple syrup to sweeten, vanilla extract for flavor, almond flour to thicken, and cocoa powder for that chocolatey goodness.

All that is needed for the outside chocolate shell is some dairy free chocolate chips melted with a little bit of coconut oil. So easy and so delicious!
