Hazelnut Orange Truffles

by junkfoodkids

I love chocolate, and as I was working on a monochrome collaboration on Instagram, I was thinking brown or green. Really I was thinking chocolate or brussels sprouts. February means chocolate to me. I made these low carb truffles. You will never want store-bought truffles again!! They are like a truffle, and a peanut butter cup had a baby, but with hazelnuts. I had to leave the rest with my friends after I ate 5.

Directions
Use a high-speed blender or food processor. Place hazelnuts, olive oil, and honey in blender and blend until creamy. Once creamy, use a teaspoon to scoop nut butter, roll each scoop into a ball. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place each ball on parchment paper. Once all balls are ready, place in freezer for ten minutes. Put chocolate chips in a bowl. Microwave for 15 sec, stir. Continue 15 sec and stirring until all chips are melted. Take hazelnut balls and roll each one in chocolate to cover. Place back on baking sheet and return to freezer. Freeze for 30 minutes. Store in refrigerator.
