I can’t go through the holiday season without indulging in eggnog! These best ever no bake eggnog truffles are the perfect way to get my eggnog fix! They are dairy free, gluten free, grain free and paleo with a vegan option! And they could not be easier to make! All you need is your food processor and a few simple ingredients!

I am one of those people that stalk the grocery store shelves for eggnog right around Thanksgiving. Please tell me I’m not alone on this obsession! I love to make homemade eggnog lattes using dairy free eggnog like Good Karma Brand Holiday Nog (made with flax milk). There are also almond milk and coconut milk brands that are also super yummy! The eggnog latte’s I make at home always puts a smile on my face, since they remind me of an amazing trip I took with one of my best girlfriends to Seattle. That eggnog latte was one of the best I’ve ever had and I wanted to try to recreate that feeling with a holiday cookie!

That where I got the idea for these no bake eggnog truffles! I mean what is better than a truffle around the holidays? And my favorite eggnog flavor paired with chocolate = heaven! These no bake eggnog truffles are super simple, nothing crazy here! Just dates and dairy free eggnog combined with coconut butter (my favorite) and a little coconut flour! Seriously these are so simple to make, even the kiddos can help!

If you have a family member who you know loves eggnog, you have to make these eggnog truffles for them! They are also perfect for those holiday get togethers where you don’t really have time to bake cookies! These truffles can hang out in the freezer for a week or more, just make sure you give them time to defrost in the fridge (15 minutes or so) or they might be a little hard to bite into! These truffles are the perfect size, where you won’t feel guilty for popping 2-3 in your mouth over the course of the night!

I used collagen peptides to increase the protein in these, however if you are vegetarian or vegan you can completely omit the collagen and still have the exact same end product! Also I used Enjoy Life brand allergy friendly chocolate chips for this recipe, but you can use whatever your favorite chocolate is! You can also check out how to make your own chocolate coating from protein powder and coconut oil like the chocolate I used in these dairy-free chocolate pumpkin sunbutter cups. I wanted to keep this recipe as simple as possible so I used melted chocolate instead. If you are going to melt down the chocolate chips, adding a 1/2 tbs. of coconut oil really helps them with their consistency, so don’t skip that ingredient!
