Pistachio Chocolate-Covered Truffles
⚡ KevEats Recipe
Pistachio Chocolate Bites
Creamy, nutty, chocolate-coated bites that feel way fancier than they are.
These are rich, cold, and super satisfying — like a pistachio truffle meets frozen dessert bite. Great when you want something sweet that feels elevated but still portionable.

Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup pistachios
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 5–6 pitted dates
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup dark chocolate or stevia-sweetened chocolate (70%+)
- optional few drops liquid sweetener, to taste
- optional flaky sea salt
- optional finely chopped nuts or seeds for topping
Kev Tip
Freeze the centers until very firm.
That makes dipping way easier and helps the chocolate set fast instead of turning messy.
Make It Fit Your Macros
Lower sugar: use fewer dates and a stevia-sweetened chocolate.
More pistachio flavor: add a tiny drop of almond extract alongside the vanilla.
Smaller portions: make 16 bites instead of 14 for a lighter treat.

Storage / Meal Prep
Store in the freezer for the best texture. Let sit at room temp for 2–3 minutes before eating so the center softens slightly.
Instructions
- 1Add the coconut cream, pistachios, cashews, dates, and vanilla to a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend until thick and creamy.
- 2Scoop the mixture into 14 bite-sized portions onto a parchment-lined tray.
- 3Freeze for about 2 hours, or until the bites are firm enough to dip.
- 4Melt the chocolate gently in the microwave or over a double boiler. Stir in optional sweetener if using.
- 5Dip each frozen bite into the melted chocolate, then place back on the tray and finish with flaky salt or chopped nuts if desired.
- 6Freeze again for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate is set, then serve or store frozen.
