Estes Trufas Saudáveis are delicious 5-ingredient chocolate bites made with dairy-free ingredients and ready in just about 30 minutes sem manteiga.
Truffles are normally made with a lot of butter. Here, I used yogurt instead, which creates light truffles with less fat and more protein, depending on the type of yogurt you pick, and a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth fudgy texture.

Trufas Saudáveis
Ingredientes
- ¾ xícara Iogurte sem laticínios - notas 1
- ½ xícara Cacau em pó sem açúcar
- 3 colheres de sopa Maple Syrup - notas 2
- 1 colher de sopa Óleo de côco - notas 3
- ¼ xícara Chips de chocolate amargo - notas 4
Opcional
- 1 colher de chá de extrato de baunilha
- 1 pitada Flocos de sal marinho
Casca de chocolate
- ½ xícara Chips de chocolate amargo
- 1 colher de chá Óleo de côco
Instruções
- Cover a large plate with parchment paper. Slightly oil paper. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, add yogurt, cocoa powder, and maple syrup.
- Gently stir with a rubber spatula until all the cocoa powder is incorporated into the liquid ingredients. Go slow, as the cocoa powder is messy, and it takes a good 1-2 minutes to stir in the cold yogurt. Set aside.
- In a small microwave-safe mixing bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second bursts until fully melted. Stir to combine and form a smooth melted chocolate mixture.
- Pour the melted chocolate into the previous bowl and stir to incorporate and form a shiny, smooth chocolate batter.
- Place the bowl in the fridge for 15-25 minutes or until the texture firms up into a fudge.
- Use a small cookie dough scoop or a teaspoon to scoop some fudgy truffle batter, then roll it in your greased hands (it's messy, your hands are going to be chocolatey, and that's normal) to form balls, then release them on the prepared plate.
- Roll them in unsweetened cocoa powder or make the chocolate shell.
Casca de chocolate
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted, smooth, and shiny.
- Use two forks to gently dip each truffle into melted chocolate. Wait for a few seconds above the bowl to let excess melted chocolate run down the bowl.
- Place each coated truffle on the prepared plate, leaving a thumb of space between each. When all truffles have been coated with chocolate, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top of them and immediately place them in the freezer to set the chocolate shell. 5-10 minutes should be enough.
- When the truffles' chocolate shell is hard, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Ingredientes e Substituições
You only need 5 ingredients for the truffle batter (I know, I forgot the coconut oil and chocolate chips on the picture).

- Iogurte sem laticínios – Use a thick, creamy option like coconut yogurt for the best texture. Any other yogurt would also work.
- Cacau em pó sem açúcar – Choose a quality unsweetened cocoa powder for a deep chocolate flavor.
- Maple Syrup – Maple syrup adds a subtle sweetness without overpowering the chocolate taste. Agave syrup, date syrup, or coconut nectar are good swaps and may adjust the flavor slightly.
- Óleo de côco – This is crucial for achieving the right texture, as it firms up the truffle mixture. For a neutral taste, choose refined coconut oil; for a coconut flavor, go with unrefined coconut oil. Avoid other oils, as they won’t provide the same texture. The only possible alternative is cacao butter as it has a similar melting point as coconut oil.
- Chips de chocolate amargo – Choose chips with 55-70% cocoa content for a balanced sweetness. If you prefer a less sweet truffle, go for 70% dark chocolate chips. Avoid over 85%, which can make the truffles very intense.
How to Make Healthy Truffles
It’s a really easy recipe to make. All it takes is less than 10 minutes of prep time and a mixing bowl.

Pour the cocoa powder, yogurt, and maple syrup into a large mixing bowl.

Combine the batter with a silicone spatula and incorporate the melted chocolate chips until it’s smooth and shiny.

Oil your hands and roll small balls. Place them on a plate with baking paper to prevent sticking.

Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil and dip the truffles into it.
Dicas da Carine
I’ve got a few more tips for you to make sure you make the best truffles.
- Temperatura do iogurte – Let the yogurt sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to help the mixture blend more easily with the chocolate. Cold yogurt tends to make some lumps.
- Smooth Cocoa Mixing – To avoid clumping, sift the cocoa powder into the yogurt slowly, stirring as you go.
- Chocolate Derretido – If melting chocolate over a stove, use a double boiler setup to prevent burning and ensure a smooth melt.
- Consistent Truffle Sizes – You can use a small cookie scoop for uniform truffles, but it might get a bit messy as the batter is very sticky.
- Mess-Free Rolling (almost) – Lightly oil your hands to make rolling the truffle mixture into balls smoother and less sticky.
- Melhorias de sabor – Add a dash of espresso powder to deepen the chocolate flavor or cinnamon for a warm note.
- Revestimentos Alternativos – For variety, roll some truffles in cocoa powder, shredded coconut, or crushed nuts instead of using the chocolate shell.
- Dica de armazenamento – Store truffles in layers with parchment paper between them to prevent sticking in an airtight container.
- Quick Set for Shell – If short on time, use the freezer to set the chocolate shell in just 5 minutes.






Adorei!
I can’t wait to make these they look so yummy!! Do you have a particular brand of coconut oil that you prefer?
I am using local brand, and since I live in New Zealand most of the brand are not sold worldwide. I like unrefined coconut oil, it has a light coconut flavor that goes well with truffles.
My truffle mixture in fridge is not getting hard. I already added more cocoa powder? Help?♀️♀️
It’s the coconut oil and dark chocolate together that harden the truffle mixture in the fridge as both ingredient solidify in cold environment. This works only if you didn’t swap coconut oil for some other oil, and your yogurt is thick and not watery – like low-fat yogurt. Did you use something else? Simply add an extra tablespoon of melted coconut oil or some extra melted chocolate, it will fix the batter immediately. Adding more cocoa powder won’t change anything. Also keep in mind that will stay soft like a thick creamy chocolate paste not hard solid.
Thank you for the recipe will try soon. Sounds yummy for the Holidays.
Can you use non dairy chocolate chips for the shell, to make them vegan?
All my recipes are vegan and made with dairy-free yogurt – here I am using coconut yogurt – and dairy-free dark chocolate chips. Enjoy!
They are great! Thumbs up for this recipe!
Great recipe, it’s on my list of Thanksgiving and Christmas!
Can you freeze these truffles for a time – perhaps 2 weeks, as part of getting ready for Christmas? Obviously can freeze to harden the chocolate shell, but that’s only a short time.
I am pretty sure they freeze well, I would thaw them in the fridge the day before.
This recipe sounds delicious and super easy! Can’t wait to try! Thinking about making for gifts. Do these need to be kept refrigerated because of the yogurt? About how long do you think they stay good for?
Yes, they need to be kept in the fridge. They stay for a few days when kept refrigerated.
