Holly I don't think the powder would work. Jean it's not an exact science with this recipe. Do try this. No one can guess the "secret" ingredient and great for entertaining. I'll be making lots at Christmas.

This recipe makes 20 servings. If you get 20 truffles, that means 1 is a serving.

They are amazing! I also put one table spoon of cocoa powder into the mixture and not only as the coating. That way they are even more bitter and choclatey!
You are amazing Dietdoctor!! Thank you :D

Do you serve then cold?
You can serve them cold or at room temperature. If your room temp is hot, then you may want to refrigerate them for at least a little while before serving so the chocolate and coconut oil don't melt too much.
