BLUE NINJA TRUFFLES

These truffles are a quick + easy treat that you can mix up with just a few simple ingredients.

They have a sweet and rich taste from the combination of dates, coconut, and chocolate with the nice subtle undertone of earthiness from the addition of Blue Ninja ( blue matcha) which is made from blue butterfly pea flowers. You could even say they’re easy PEAsy to make! ;)

The hardest part about making these is not eating them all at once!

Ingredients

• 260g pitted Medjool dates

• 25g raw cacao or cocoa powder

2. Add cacao powder, ground almonds, coconut and Blue Ninja powder.
