No sugar? No problem!
You won’t even miss the sugar. So rich and creamy. I don’t know how this recipe makes it happen but these truffles are made of magic. They do melt easily so keep them away from heat or keep them in your fridge. Do not plan to share these. You will regret it if you do! Simply delicious.

While they do still have some sugar in them (because carbs=sugar), the dark chocolate and coconut milk help cut a lot off! We are so glad you enjoyed them!
