- 2 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon cocoa

- Add the cocoa and desiccated coconut to the pan and stir until well mixed.2 tablespoon cocoa, 6 tablespoon desiccated coconut
- Chill for about 30 minutes until firm and roll into balls.
Notes
- If you prefer, you can use maple syrup rather than honey to make vegan truffles
- If you don't want to roll the mixture into balls, you can also set it in a small lined baking tin or plastic box. Leave to harden in the fridge and cut into squares or mini rectangles.
- Store coconut truffle balls in the fridge as they need to be kept cool. If you need to transport them, pop them in the freezer first so that they stay cool.
