Instructions

Small Batch:

Mix the almond flour, cream cheese, butter, sweetener, coconut flakes, extract, and salt. Form into 2 balls with your hands.
Microwave the sugar-free white chocolate chips for 20 seconds. Stir. If they aren't completely melted microwave at 10 seconds intervals. When they are about 75% melted just stir until they are completely melted. Add a little coconut oil if it seems too thick.
Cover each ball with white chocolate. Sprinkle with a few extra coconut flakes. Pop into the freezer for a minute to set the chocolate.

Large Batch:

Microwave the sugar-free white chocolate chips for 30 seconds. Stir. If they aren't completely melted microwave at 15 seconds intervals, stirring after each. When they are about 75% melted just stir until they are completely melted. Add a little coconut oil if it seems too thick.
Mix the almond flour, cream cheese, butter, sweetener, coconut flakes, extract, and salt. Scoop with a cookie scoop to divide evenly. Form into 12 balls with your hands.
Cover each ball with white chocolate. Sprinkle with a few extra coconut flakes. Pop into the freezer for a minute to set the chocolate.

Notes

Nutrition: The nutrition facts are for 1 truffle. There are 1.8 NET carbs in each truffle.

Substitutions: Swap out the white chocolate for a sugar free dark chocolate.

To Store: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.

To Freeze: Store in a freezer bag or container for up to two months. Thaw in the fridge or eat frozen.

Notes on Sweeteners:

I use my own blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet and Truvia.

To sub in Swerve or Lakanto Monk Fruit use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for.

To sub in Pyure or Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet use half the amount of sweetener called for.

Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.
