    These Gingerbread Truffles are super easy to make with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.

    They are sweet, rich, and creamy. They make a great gift for the holidays.

    Some other gingerbread recipes to try are Peanut Butter Flavored Gingerbread, Gingerbread Hummus, Gingerbread Energy Bites, and Gingerbread Ice Cream. For more gingerbread recipes, check out my Vegan Gingerbread Recipes roundup.

    Another way to put that bottle of blackstrap molasses to good use is a Gingerbread Hot Chocolate recipe or Vegan Molasses Cocoa Drink.

    ❤️ Why You'll Love Them

    • They are sweet, rich, and creamy.
    • They make a great gift for the holidays.
    • They're simple and easy to make.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Ingredients for gingerbread truffles on a cutting board with labels.
    • Chocolate chips: I used semi-sweet chocolate chips. You could also use dark chocolate baking chunks.
    • Coconut milk: Make sure to use full-fat coconut milk. It adds a creamy consistency and rich flavor. If you want to use light coconut milk, you'll need less than listed here.
    • Cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, nutmeg: Warming spices found in gingerbread.
    • Molasses: I used blackstrap molasses because of its dark rich flavor.
    • Cacao powder (or unsweetened cocoa powder) and ground ginger: For rolling the truffles in.
    • Salt: Brings out the sweetness. I like to use sea salt.

    To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
