You know what’s a great word? Truffle. It’s kind of silly, but fun to say—and even more fun to eat! My recipe for Dark Chocolate Hazelnut & Coconut Truffles puts JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter, shredded coconut, and dark chocolate chips together to create something wonderful. They’re great for parties, gatherings, or just a fun little treat. Enjoy!
I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.
I know what you’re thinking as you stare at this luscious recipe photo. Is it a cookie? Is it a pie? Is it a giant nut butter cup?! And the truth is, it’s all of those in one. The ultimate Nut Butter Cup Cookie Pie perfected by me, Justin. You can use any JUSTIN’S® nut butter cups on this recipe and top it with your favorite ice cream. Trust me when I say, this recipe is better than anything you could get at a fancy restaurant.
