Two cans of garbonzo beans

1- 1.5 cups of Melted cholate chips of your chocie (Use a double boiler method to melt chocolate.)
Blend beans, nut butter, and melted chocolate in a food processor or a blender, I use a vitamix until creamy smooth.
1 cup of melted chips for dipping
To Make:
After melting the first batch of chocolate and blending all ingredients together, scoop out your prefered size and place on a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Then feeze the truffle. Once frozen or nearly frozen you can roll the truffles into smooth spheres. Freeze again if needed and dip the truffle in the rest of the melted chocolate. Top with any of the idea listed below.
