Easter Marzipan Truffles
People often make #Easter Simnel cakes at this time of year. If you have any marzipan left over, you can make these truffles to either enjoy on their own, or to top your Simnel cake with. You can also very easily make your own marzipan, as instructed in this recipe. I prefer homemade marzipan to shop bought - I find it milder and more natural in flavour and colour. #dairyfree #vegan #glutenfree

- 1
Melt the chocolate, coconut oil, coconut cream and vanilla extract very gently in a heavy bottomed saucepan. Once all of the ingredients are molten and well combined, pour the ganache into a bowl or Tupperware container and put in the fridge to cool.
- 2
Add your almond flour, maple syrup and almond extract to a medium sized mixing bowl. Stir with a metal spoon to mix the ingredients well and start bringing the mixture together.
- 3
Using your hands, continue to bring together the marzipan mixture into a ball. After a few minutes, the loose breadcrumb-like texture should start to stick together to form a moist but crumbly dough. Keep kneading until the dough forms a tightly packed ball of marzipan.
- 4
Roll the dough out with your hands to form a thick sausage. Using a knife, divide the mixture into 10 evenly sized pieces.
- 5
Using the palms of your hands, roll each piece into a ball.

Take your chocolate ganache out of the fridge, you want it to be a thick, glossy consistency. Spear a marzipan ball on a skewer and coat it evenly in chocolate. If you don’t have a skewer you can use 2 teaspoons to roll the marzipan in the chocolate. Set the covered marzipan down on a sheet of greaseproof paper. Repeat the process until all of the balls are coated.
- 7
The first truffle you coated should be starting to set, repeat the whole process until each truffle has 2 coats of chocolate ganache. Then leave for 30 minutes to harden.

Roll each truffle in cocoa powder and enjoy!
