Prepare the strawberries by cutting them into small chunks. Fold the strawberries into the truffle mixture. Create small balls, then coat them with coconut flour. Transfer the balls into the fridge for at least one hour before serving. Enjoy your strawberry coconut truffles!
Tips
You can substitute cream cheese for mascarpone.
Make the strawberry coconut truffles vegan by substituting coconut cream for the mascarpone. Add coconut flour to thicken the mixture and make it pliable.
The fresh strawberries can be substituted with freeze-dried strawberries.
For added texture, add mini white chocolate chips to the truffle mixture before rolling it into balls.
If you want them to be creamier, allow the truffles to come to room temperature before serving.
To make equally-sized truffles, use a small ice cream scoop to measure out the portions.
Strawberry Truffle Variations
Instead of rolling the truffles in coconut flour, dip them in melted white chocolate and sprinkle with freeze-dried strawberries. Use two forks to roll the truffles in melted chocolate, then set them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper to set.
You can play around with other mix-ins too. Try chopped nuts, cranberries, or even caramel bits.
Feel free to use other sprinkles. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- toasted dried coconut
- rainbow sprinkles
- chocolate sprinkles
- grated chocolate
- freeze-dried berries.
How To Store Strawberry Coconut Truffles
