Happy Almost Valentine’s Day everyone! How do you all feel about the holiday? Do you love it / hate it? I’ve always kind of loved Valentine’s Day, even the years I was single, because I love the color pink and love seeing hearts everywhere. Now that I’m in my twenties, it’s admittedly not quite as exciting. But when I was in high school, I remember there was this spread in Teen Vogue that I just loved – these girls who started their own vintage clothing store hosted a Galentine’s Day tea party, and it was just as cute as you’d imagine. Cookies, pink cupcakes, peonies and daisies, whimsically mismatched teacups… basically my aesthetic dream. So what did I do? I hosted my own Galentine’s Day! I invited all my best gal pals over for quiche, cookies, scones, cupcakes, and tea. It was a blast!

These little chocolate truffles would have fit in perfectly with that party I hosted so many years ago. They’re daintily bite-sized, but decadently chocolatey. I tested these truffles on my non-vegan friends, and they all LOVED them. Like, absolutely LOVED them. As in they keep requesting that I make more! ;) And with only four ingredients, they’re ridiculously easy to make. Plus, they’re a treat you can feel good about – 100% raw and vegan, filled with live nutrients and antioxidants to keep your Valentine healthy!
