Trick or Treat! I’ve got something good to eat.
Not having a bit of chocolate after dinner is like not brushing my teeth before I go to bed, it just feels wrong. I don’t need much to satisfy my sweet tooth, but I love a little creamy treat before I hit the hay.
I’ve been trying to up my sweet game because as much as I will forever love brownies, cookies, and candy, I know I need to design some mostly healthier alternatives. My love affair with chocolate isn’t going to stop anytime soon, might as well create something I feel good about eating and sharing with others.
I’m so excited for Halloween tomorrow! My mom still rolls her eyes when I say that Halloween is my favorite holiday. (What? Were you expecting something more family oriented?)
Costumes, candy, horror movies, and an excuse to put skeletons and fake crows all over my house? I lovvvvve it. BL and I are planning a romantic night in with back-to-back scary movies, delivery pizza, and these truffles for dessert. Also known as BL’s most favorite date night idea.
This is the first year in a long time that we aren’t hosting a Halloween party, mostly because we have a total of 3 friends in our new city. That’s OK, I’m happy to hang up my own costume in exchange for handing out candy for the first time in my adult life. That’s the fun thing about trading a condo for a house, we’re actually expecting trick-or-treaters! I’ve gone all out with the Teal Pumpkin Project and lots of chocolate for those who want it.
Wishing you a wonderful Halloween- and an excuse to make these truffles!

These sound amazing, definitely going to have to try! But fyi, dark chocolate isn’t 100% vegan; there’s still a bit of dairy in it…enough that purist vegans will get their panties in a bunch about it.
I hope you had a great Halloween in your new home Alex! I always make candy for Xmas, and these truffles will definitely be in the mix! Thanks for sharing

Aww, that sounds like such a fun Halloween!! I hope you both enjoyed it! I remember when we moved to a rental house for a couple of years, and I always looked forward to handing out candy and seeing the kids’ cute costumes. There’s something so satisfying about them shouting, “Trick-or-treat!” that warms my heart. And I totally agree — no chocolate after dinner makes me feel like the world is going to end! 😉
