It's hard to believe that something so simple could taste so good...

What's the deal with paleo chocolate you ask? Well, first off I am not strictly paleo, but I do try to avoid dairy and extra sugar when possible. It just makes me feel better. Paleo chocolate needs to be dark, dairy free and have as little sugar as possible. These Three Ingredient Paleo Chocolate Truffles are only sweetened by the freeze dried strawberries on the outside and that works great. Try to find a dark chocolate (at least 75%) and make sure it's dairy free and has very little sugar.
Even your little ones will love these Three Ingredient Paleo Chocolate Truffles because they are...
- sweet, but not too sweet
- super chocolatey
- rich
- creamy
- two-bite
- gluten free
- paleo
- whole30
- dairy free (look for dairy free chocolate)
- vegan
- beautiful
Come on, surprise your Valentine tomorrow! Have these truffles with this Strawberry Lime Gin Rickey.
