Truffles with coconut chocolate chips and 4 ingredients: the simplest recipe for a treat ready in 5 minutes!

Ingredients:

  • 200 g dry biscuits (such as digestive biscuits or butter biscuits)
  • 100 g of dark chocolate
  • 50 g of butter
  • 50g grated coconut (plus more coconut for finishing, if desired)

Method:

  1. Crush the biscuits :
    • Start by finely crushing dry biscuits in a food processor or placing them in a food bag and crushing them with a rolling pin until they have a consistency similar to bread crumbs.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter :
    • Place the chopped dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Melt everything in a bain-marie or in the microwave at short intervals, stirring occasionally, until the mixture becomes smooth and homogeneous.
  3. Combine biscuits and coconut :
    • Pour the crushed biscuits into the bowl with the melted chocolate and butter. Also add the grated coconut.
    • Mix all the ingredients well until you obtain a homogeneous and compact mixture.
  4. Shape the truffles :
    • With slightly damp hands to prevent the dough from sticking, take small portions of dough and roll them between your hands to form round balls of the desired size.
  5. Coconut finish :
    • If desired, roll newly formed truffles in shredded coconut to coat evenly. This will add an extra pop of flavor and make the truffles more appealing.
  6. Cooling and storage :
    • Place the coconut and chocolate truffles on a tray lined with baking paper and let them cool in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
    • Suggestions:
    • You can customize the truffles by adding other ingredients such as chopped dried fruit, vanilla, rum or flavored liqueur.
    • For a more decorative finish, you can also make a melted chocolate glaze and pour it over the truffles before rolling them in shredded coconut.
    • These coconut and chocolate chip truffles are a delicious and quick treat that is sure to please everyone. Enjoy your meal!
    • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
