This post is sponsored by Nektar Naturals. We've officially entered February: the month of LUUUUVVVV! Valentine's Day has always been fun to me, regardless of whether or not I've been in a relationship. Hallmark's holiday is just a great excuse to remind everyone you love that you love them. How could you not dig a holiday like that?
When I was little, my mom always used to buy me a box of chocolates for Valentine's Day. I loved tasting all the different truffles and chocolates inside, but now that I'm older, my sensitive tummy doesn't want me to enjoy all the sugary, milk-chocolately goodness.
What's a dessert-loving foodie to do? Make her own chocolately goodness, of course!
So as my Valentine's Day treat to all my healthy-living friends, I bring you these love-filled Easy 3-Ingredient Chocolate Truffles.
That's right, my friends - 3 ingredients! These are the easiest dessert you'll ever make, and one of the tastiest! All you do is combine the ingredients, pour into a mold, freeze for a few minutes and voila! Valentine's Day goodness at the ready!
I used my beloved Nektar Honey Crystals to give these babies the perfect amount of sweetness. No muss no fuss! Technically, these sweet little crystals contain cane sugar, so they aren't Paleo (though they can be made both paleo and vegan quite easily). Fortunately for me, my Paleo experiment ends before Valentine's Day - so these babies are currently sitting in my freezer waiting to be devoured. Will power to the extreme.
Paleo or not, these truffles are still quite healthy! They're made with simple, whole ingredients and are dairy, gluten, and soy free! Each truffle is only 44 calories, has 4.8 grams of healthy fat (thanks to some delicious Vita Coco Coconut Oil), less than 1 carb and a minuscule amount of sugar (only 0.2 grams). They make the perfect healthy Valentine's Day treat!
If you're looking for more delectable treats to share with your loved ones, Nektar Naturals has you covered. They just started selling these delicious looking Dark Chocolate-Dipped Pretzels dusted with Nektar Honey Crystals. I know a few loved ones who would be all over these!
Better yet, send your loved ones a sweet Valentine with a Nektar Naturals Valentine's Day Honey-Gram!
