Recipe Source : Sweet Vegan

Ingredients 

1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour 
1/3 cup cocoa powder 
1 teaspoon baking soda 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
3/4 cup sugar 
1/2 cup vegetable oil 
1 cup cold water or brewed coffee
2 teaspoons vanilla extract 
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Chocolate Frosting – 2 cups

For Outer Layer

Shortening or oil – 2- 3 tbsp 
Candy melts ( I used green color) – 1 cup ( Melt them in double boiler of in microwave for 30 sec )

Method

  •  Preheat oven to 375°F. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
  •  In a large measuring jug, mix together all liquid ingredients except for the vinegar.
  • Add the wet to the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
  • Add the vinegar and stir until even distributed throughout the batter. Pour onto un-greased edged cookie sheet (a flat one won’t hold in the batter and you’ll have quite the mess on your hands)and bake 10-20 minutes. depending on your oven.
  •  When cake is cooled, crumble the cake add the chocolate frosting to it and knead them.
  • Divide and make equal sized ball.
  • Melt the chocolate using double boiler or in microwave add shortening or oil as needed to make the melted chocolate a little Flowing in consistency.  
  • Dip each ball in the melted chocolate coat them well and lift it using a fork , tap the fork so that the excess chocolate will fall.
  • Keep the coated truffle on a parchment paper and let the chocolate set .
  • After they set melt the candy melts transfer it to zip lock cut a tiny hole and drizzle the chocolate on truffles .

Here is My treat for all my buddies of Blogging world 🙂 Wish you all a happy new year 2014 🙂
