I haven't posted any recipes recently. That's because I haven't been making as many new recipes, and also because I noticed a correlation between the number of new recipes I make/post and the number I see on the scale. It's unfortunate.

Anyway, I have been trying to create just the right coconut truffle for this month's sugar high friday. Since these truffles were good, but not just right, I am posting them before the actual event. Like I said, they were good. But the texture was not quite as smooth as I was hoping. I am actually only posting them because I am embarrassed about the quality of food photography thus far on The Glutton. I am hoping to bring up the average grade here. I spent some time last week with the camera. Hurray for manual focus and natural lighting!

I made the truffles with chocolate ganache made with coconut milk instead of cream. Then I whipped the ganache after it cooled, made little truffles and dipped them in dark chocolate. oh yeah, don't forget to roll them in almonds. That was the best part!
