Le Chic Kéto Signature Tip

Serve on a beautiful vintage napkin with a cup of black coffee.

Variations with macro changes:

More Chocolate. +1/2 tbsp cocoa (+0.4 g net carbs, +0.2 g fat per truffle). Enhance the chocolate flavor by adding one and a half tablespoons of pure cocoa powder.

More Nuts. +5 g hazelnut paste (+0.2 g net carbs, +0.7 g fat per truffle). Make the texture heartier by adding a tablespoon of hazelnut paste.

Traditional. -1/2 tbsp cocoa (-0.4 g net carbs per truffle). Return to the classic recipe by removing half a tablespoon of cocoa powder, and the carbohydrates in each truffle will decrease by approximately 0.4 g.
