Christmas Yuzu Snowball Truffles

As the snow comes down making it very festive I decided to make these snowball truffles.

Using yuzu juice and candied yuzu peel. If you can’t get this you could easily substitute with lemon juice and candied lemon peel.

In a food processor add

2 cups of desiccated coconut

1/4 cup of chopped dried cranberries

1 cup of almond flour

3 tablespoons of melted coconut butter

1/4 cup of rice malt syrup or maple syrup

1/4 cup of yuzu juice

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla essence

1/4 cup of chopped candied yuzu peel

Blend all the ingredients together . Then tip it out onto some plastic wrap and squash all the ingredients together into one big ball so that everything is well pressed together.

Then take tablespoons of truffle mixture and roll out in to individual balls. Finally give them a dusting of icing sugar to make them even more snowy looking.

Place in the fridge to set keep them refrigerated until you want to eat them.

These would be perfect boxed as a gift.
