Vegan Dark Chocolate Truffles with walnuts

This is my base recipe for a dark chocolate ganache. It’s as clean as possible since I’ve used full fat coconut milk as a substitute for the cream and you can add whatever flavouring you’d like. 

Ensure you use a full fat coconut milk without any additives. Read the label carefully.
