-
Warm the milk in the microwave or over the stove. Using a fork, whisk in the maple syrup, salt, and vanilla.
-
Add the 80 g of cocoa powder and stir until the mixture comes together to form a thick paste. (This takes some effort!)
-
Lay a sheet of plastic wrap over the truffle mixture so it doesn’t dry out, and chill in the fridge for an hour. With dry hands, roll into 10 g balls (about the size of a standard bouncy ball).
-
Sprinkle the truffles with the reserved cocoa powder to finish. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
