Ingredients

Scale
  • 1. 1 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 2. 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3. 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 4. 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 5. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6. 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 7. 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine pecans, graham cracker crumbs, maple syrup, cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended and smooth.
  2. Roll mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Freeze truffles for 20–30 minutes until firm.
  4. In a heatproof bowl, melt chocolate and coconut oil together over a double boiler or in the microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
  5. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, coating completely, and return to the baking sheet.
  6. Chill until chocolate is set, about 15 minutes, before serving.
