    Keto chocolate truffles are an easy sweet treat to make and these have all the flavours of Irish Cream liqueur but without the sugar.

    Rather than add a tablespoon or two of our homemade sugar free Irish cream recipe, we added the main ingredients into the chocolate truffle mixture.

    The experiments using the Irish cream did not work very well. It may have been a heavy hand pouring, but the truffle mixture did not firmly set. It was almost a ganache. By adding the main ingredients of the low carb Irish cream the chocolate mixture set firm enough to roll.

    How to make keto chocolate truffles

    Making chocolate truffles is simple. Just chocolate, cream and butter. Add in the flavourings of your choice or keep them plain. In this recipe we've made them adult friendly!

    To make a chocolate truffle mixture sugar free, the chocolate cocoa solids is the key. The higher the cocoa solids, the less the sugar.

    Warm cream is poured over the chocolate and butter and allowed to gently melt for a few minutes. Stir the mixture and add your flavourings. Once cooled and firm you are ready to roll a chocolate truffle ball.

    What to roll the Irish Cream Truffles in

    These Irish cream truffles could be served plain or you can roll them in finely chopped nuts, desiccated coconut or cocoa powder.

    We drizzled ours in the photos with sugar free white and dark chocolate as well as cocoa.

    Recipe Tips

    To reduce the chilling time, pour the chocolate truffle mixture into a shallow dish. It will be like scooping ice cream when you come to roll the truffle balls.

    This make a great homemade gift for the holidays or birthdays.

      This came out so hard and definitely can't roll any balls out of it. Followed the recipe exactly, will try to add more cream or butter to get it softer. Used 85% chocolate & may add a touch of sweetener too.

        I wonder if the chocolate made any difference as mine was 70%. Hope it worked out with more cream!
