Tips for Perfect Keto Chocolate Truffles

Use High-Quality Chocolate: The taste of the truffles depends mostly with the type of chocolate that is used. In order to get the best of the chocolate, use high quality unsweetened or keto friendly chocolate.

Chill the Mixture: Following this, you should regard the chocolate and place it into the refrigerator until it becomes set, but not rigid. This makes it easier to work it into truffles.

Work Quickly: Finally when rolling the truffles, do it fast since the mixture may start to become soft. If the mixture of cheese and butter becomes unmanageable soft, and it is still not time to serve it, it should be possible to re-chill it.

Choose Your Coating Wisely: Just in case, if you want more taste, it is recommended to roll the truffles with cocoa powder. For a more colourful effect, you might try using shredded coconut or even finely chopped nuts. It is also possible to combine the two in order to add more variation into the diet.

Make Small Batches: Even if these truffles, they are relatively large and as such, the portions are best kept small. As with many of my recipes, you can halve or double this recipe to suit your requirements without any problems.
