- 10 oz vegan chocolate
- 1/3 cups full fat coconut milk
- 1 tsp quality black tea
- 5-6 cardamom pods crushed
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/2 tsp cloves
- 1 anise star
- 1/2 inch ginger peeled and grated
- Raw cacao powder to coat
Add the coconut milk, tea and spices into a small sauce pan, and bring to boil over low heat.
Simmer for 5-7 minutes, strain and discard the spices and tea.
In a medium pot add the chocolate and infused coconut milk and melt over low heat (best using bain marie).
When all the chocolate melted, mix to combine and remove from the heat (or bain marie).
Set aside to cool, then refrigerate for at least an hour.
Use an ice cream scoop or a little spoon, and your palms to shape the mixture into little truffles.
Roll them on a plate with cacao powder, then store into an airtight container in the refrigerator up to two weeks.
