Ingredients:  
1 13.5oz can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup nut or seed butter
1 cup chocolate chips, melted

Directions:
Directions:
Drain and rinse one can of chickpeas. Then, melt the chocolate in the microwave or on the stovetop, stirring frequently.

Next, add the chickpeas, nut butter and melted chocolate chips to a food processor, or blender and blend for about 60 seconds or until ingredients are well incorporated.

Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop the batter and place onto a baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper. Roll into smooth balls. Place the balls in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes to harden.

In the meantime, melt the additional dark chocolate for dipping. Remove the truffles from the freezer and coat them well with the chocolate. Then place them back onto the baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper, and then back into the freezer to harden completely.

Option to top with desired toppings before placing back in the freezer to harden the last time. That’s it, remove from the freezer and store in the fridge.

Enjoy within 7-10 days if kept in the fridge or 30-60 days if kept in the freezer.

(I just make the basic without coating in chocolate for a semi healthy snack for Remi)
