Potato Chip Chocolate Truffles


Makes 30-40 truffles

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c vegan chocolate chips
  • 1/4 c vegan vanilla creamer
  • 3 T olive oil
  • 2 T Kahlua or coffee liqueur
  • 1 t vanilla
  • 1/8 t salt
  • 1/2 c finely crushed thick-cut potato chips

Directions

Line an 8×4 inch loaf pan with aluminum foil and grease with vegan margarine. In a large microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips, creamer, oil, and Kahlua. Microwave for 60 seconds, let sit for 30 seconds, and then stir well. If chips aren’t melted, continue to heat mixture at intervals of 30 seconds, stirring well in between each heating. Alternatively, melt everything in a double boiler. Once smooth, mix in vanilla and salt. Into prepared loaf pan, pour melted chocolate mixture. Tap pan against a counter to bring bubbles to surface and even out chocolate. Place pan in refrigerator and let chill until solidified, about 1 to 2 hours. Remove pan from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. Slice into 1/2″ squares and remove from pan. Roll each square in the palms of your hands until round and smooth. Just before serving, roll truffles in the palms of your hands to warm chocolate, and then roll truffles in crushed potato chips, pressing firmly. Repeat with remaining pieces.
