Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp Honey House Clover Honey 100% pure, raw American honey with a light floral sweetness

  • 2½ cups rolled oats

  • 2 cups raw cashews

  • 2 cups raspberries (fresh or frozen)

  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract

  • 8–10 oz dark chocolate, melted (for coating)

  • Optional toppings: crushed freeze-dried raspberries, shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or cocoa powder


Equipment

  • Food processor or high-speed blender

  • Baking sheet

  • Parchment or wax paper

  • Microwave-safe bowl or double boiler


Pro Tips

  1. Freeze Before Dipping: Chilling the truffle centers helps the chocolate coat evenly and set cleanly.

  2. Pat Raspberries Dry: If using fresh raspberries, removing excess moisture prevents a too-soft mixture.

  3. Melt Chocolate Gently: Use low heat or short microwave bursts to keep it smooth and glossy.

  4. Work in Batches: Dip a few truffles at a time so the centers stay firm.


Instructions

  1. In a food processor, add the oats and raw cashews. Pulse until finely ground and flour-like.

  2. Add the raspberries, Honey House Clover Honey, and vanilla extract. Process until a thick, sticky mixture forms.

  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the mixture into small balls and place on the sheet.

  4. Freeze for 15–20 minutes, or until firm.

  5. Melt the dark chocolate using a microwave (20–30 second intervals) or a double boiler until smooth.

  6. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, fully coating it.

  7. Immediately sprinkle with optional toppings, if using.

  8. Return truffles to the baking sheet and chill for another 20–30 minutes until the chocolate sets. Serve chilled or slightly cool.


Storage Tips

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days

  • Freeze for up to 2 months, separating layers with parchment paper

  • Let frozen truffles thaw for a few minutes before serving


Recipe Notes

The natural tartness of raspberries balances beautifully with rich dark chocolate, while oats and cashews give these truffles a satisfying, hearty texture. Sweetening the base with honey instead of refined sugar keeps the flavor smooth and well-rounded.

Using Honey House Clover Honey adds a gentle floral sweetness that complements the fruit without overpowering it. Because it’s pure, raw, and American-sourced, the honey blends seamlessly into the mixture while supporting the quality and integrity of every ingredient.
