Jackie from NousRire, has prepared this chocolate truffle recipe combining the great taste of dried mangoes with dark chocolate for an easy and sublime dessert.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of dried mangoes soaked for 10 minutes in boiling water, then drained
- 1/3 cup of Camino Bittersweet (71%) chocolate chips, melted, ideally in a double boiler
- 1/2 cup Camino Bittersweet (71%) chocolate chips at room temperature
- 2 Tbsps of organic maple syrup, more or less to taste
- 3 Tbsps of organic and fair trade coconut milk

Directions
- Puree the mangoes using a food processor.
- Add remaining ingredients, except for the unmelted chocolate chips and the coconut oil, then blend until smooth.
- Place the mango-chocolate mixture in the fridge for about 3 hours.
- Using your hands, make small balls with the mixture and freeze for 1 hour.
- Melt the remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in a double boiler.
- Using two forks, quickly dip each ball into the melted chocolate.
- Place the truffles on a baking sheet previously covered with compostable parchment paper.
