Raw Vegan Lemon-Nut Chocolate Truffle (Copycat Larabar Variation

1. 1

   Chop or grind the nuts (I used a mixture of Walnut, Almond, Cashew, Hazelnut, and Pistachio) either by hand, in a food processor, or in a coffee grinder, depending on the coarseness you prefer.

2. 2

   The finer you chop the nuts, the firmer the mixture will stay together.

3. 3

   Chop the dates.

4. 4

   Make zests and juice out of the lemon.

5. 5

   Combine the chopped nuts, chopped dates, lemon zest and lemon juice either by hand, or in the food processor.

6. 6

   Scoop the mixture base on the size of truffles you want to make, make them into little balls, and roll them in the raw cocoa power, set aside.

7. 7

   The oil of the nuts will seep through the powder, and if you'd like, you can roll them in the raw cocoa powder again.

8. 8

   Set aside, it is pretty much ready to eat immediately.

9. 9

   I prefer to store them in room temperature.

10. 10

    It seems to allow the oil of the nuts and the cocoa powder to incorporate better as they sit.

    Enjoy!
