Tips:
- Use high-quality vegan dark chocolate chips for the best flavor.
- You can also use vegan chocolate bars instead of chocolate chips, just chop them into small pieces before melting.
- For an extra rich and creamy texture, use full-fat coconut milk instead of light coconut milk.
- If the chocolate mixture is too soft to roll into balls, place it back in the refrigerator for another 15-30 minutes until it firms up.
- You can store the truffles in the freezer for up to 3 months. Just thaw them in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
- To make the truffles extra special, you can add a splash of your favorite liqueur, such as Baileys or Kahlua, to the chocolate mixture before refrigerating.
- For a fun twist, try rolling the truffles in crushed candy canes or dried fruit.
