Method :
1. Process all ingredients in food processor ( don't add yet the superfood colours ) or in a bowl to make them with your hands hand , (I recommend in food processor so you get the dough firm in the perfect texture) , anyway you prefer to prepare continue processing until well combined and form into equal balls. If you feel that its too dry just keep adding a bit of coconut oil , stay careful not over add , you need to be able to create the balls .
If you want them colourful with superfoods , you should add in the bowl also the desired color, if you desire to make as I did different colours , just divid the Dough to three bowls and process each one .
2. Place the balls aside , you can keep them in the fridge meantime that you are making the chocolate .
3. In a bowl add the chocolate chips with 3 tbs of coconut oil , cover with a plate and melt in the microwave , remove the plate and let it melt another 20 seconds ( be careful not too burn yourself since the plate will be hot also ), mix with a spatola so the chocolate melts and smooth .
4. Dip the truffles in the melted chocolate , if you want you can sprinkle with superfood powder and let cool on rack.
5. Store in fridge and enjoy as snack.
