Keto Truffles will Rock Your World!

I have mentioned before that I am on team-salty, but now and then I need a bite of something sweet and chocolatey. Since I broke up with sugar, I try to keep something like these Keto Truffles in the fridge.

Otherwise, when the craving hits I'll end up reaching for one of the kids treats. And that never ends well!

I love these creamy little nibbles - and the family agrees! Although they are sweetened with a sugar alternative, even my picky boys gave them two thumbs up. (Once they realized they are rich and it is best if you use your manners and don't pop an entire one in your mouth at once.)

I like to curl up with a cup of coffee or tea and savor these while reading a novel or magazine. It is the perfect way to take a few minutes for myself and recharge!
