Renee's Holiday Vegan Chocolate Truffles

These truffles are the easiest and most amazing chocolate treat. I made these over the holidays and they were a hit with the neighbors and family. Great for a special birthday gift for a friend or co-worker.

Vegan Chocolate Truffles

Ingredients: 
2 bags (12 oz each) Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 - 14 oz can light coconut milk 
1 cup nuts (almonds, hazelnuts etc)
2 t. extract (vanilla, raspberry, almond)

Inside cream:
12 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 can light coconut milk of 14 oz can

Melt chocolate chips on low heat stirring in coconut milk heat 5 minutes on low heat use a double boiler. 
Stir in 2 t. of extract depending on the flavor you want.(almond, raspberry, vanilla etc.)
Take that mixture in the bowl and put in freezer leave for 15 minutes.
Take out and make small scoops using a melon baller or small spoon. Set balls in a large glass platter. Refreeze 10- 15 minutes.
Melt an additional 3/4 bag of 12 oz chocolate chips in the double boiler. Take the balls out of the freezer, roll in melted chocolate and put on wax paper after rolling in the coating of choice such as nuts. You can roll them in nuts first and then roll in melted chocolate for a final coating.
