Low Carb Pecan Pie Truffles with dark chocolate

The holidays are made for chocolate. Or maybe chocolate is made for the holidays. Well, regardless of this little chicken vs egg thing we have going here, the fact remains; chocolate and the holidays are made for each other. And I take this very much to heart: stocking up on plenty of chocolate for baking and sharing well in advance of Thanksgiving, dreaming up recipes the moment there is even a slight hint of a chill in the air. Baking with chocolate during the holidays makes me feel cozy and warm, and sharing my baked goods with others just feels like good old holiday spirit.

No-bake pecan pie bites! These little truffles are low carb and grain-free. I feel like you can make almost any goodie more special and holiday-like by dipping it in chocolate. Or drizzling it with chocolate. Or spreading it with chocolate. Or glazing it with chocolate. Just somehow schmearing it with chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, and suddenly you have a truly special holiday treat on your hands. But it really can’t just be any old chocolate. Trust me, I’ve had years of experience doing this. Nearly 30 odd years I’ve been baking and messing around with chocolate, melting it carefully over the stove and try to drizzle it or spread it or dip things into it. I’ve had some spectacular failures, where the chocolate seizes thickly and you just can’t seem to recover it. And even some where the chocolate melts but is simply too thick for dipping. That can definitely put you out of the holiday spirit. Low Carb Grain-Free Pecan Pie Truffles, the perfect no-bake holiday treat One of the best chocolates I’ve found for dipping truffles, cookies, and other delicious treats is GREEN & BLACK’S ORGANIC 85% Dark Chocolate. It melts incredibly smoothly and I have no need for adding additional butter or oil to thin it out, as I do with some other brands. Just set it in a heatproof bowl over a pan of water, and stir until melted and smooth. It’s also just the perfect bittersweet chocolate flavour that I love, and it complements sweet baked goods so well. GREEN & BLACK’S ORGANIC chocolate is, as the name suggests, certified organic and they take great pride in sourcing the best organic ingredients for their chocolate. It is also Fair Trade certified, so we consumers can rest easy knowing that they are supporting the farmers and workers from around the world who supply the ingredients.

Delicious pecan pie truffles dipped in Green & Black's dark chocolate I’ve had my eye on creating some Pecan Pie Truffles for a while now. And they seemed like the perfect way to showcase GREEN & BLACK’S ORGANIC 85% Dark Chocolate for the holidays. These no-bake treats have a cookie dough consistency but all the great flavour of one of my favourite holiday desserts. And they look so pretty, all dipped in bittersweet chocolate with a sprinkle of chopped pecans. These are definitely a treat worth sharing with friends and family. Make a double batch because you are going to want some for yourself too! Low carb pecan pie bites dipped in dark chocolate for a delicious holiday treat.

Little pecan pie bites dipped in delicious dark chocolate. A wonderful low carb treat for any time of year!

Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Dessert
Servings: 24 truffles
Calories: 252 kcal
Ingredients
  • Half recipe caramel sauce 1/2 cup
  • 1 1/4 cup pecans toasted
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup powdered Swerve Sweetener
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 bar GREEN & BLACK’S ORGANIC 85% Dark Chocolate chopped
Instructions
  1. Prepare caramel sauce according to directions (you can make a full batch, just use 1/2 cup for this recipe and refrigerate the leftovers). Let cool about 10 minutes.
  2. In a food processor or chopper, finely chop pecans. They should be mostly ground with some slightly larger pieces. Reserve about 3 tbsp of chopped pecans for springing and transfer remaining to a large bowl.
  3. Add almond flour, powdered sweetener, and salt to bowl. Whisk to combine.
  4. Stir in caramel sauce until dough begins to clump together. Using about 1 tbsp of dough at a time, squeeze together with your hands and then roll into balls.
  5. Place balls on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  6. Set a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Add chopped chocolate and stir until melted and smooth.
  7. Working with one ball at a time, dip into melted chocolate and toss to coat. Lift with a fork and gently tap against the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate. Quickly sprinkle each ball with a little of the reserved chopped pecans before the chocolate sets.
  8. Refrigerate until set. Serve at room temperature for best taste and texture (can be stored in the fridge).

  1. I used to dip pretzels in chocolate and make potato candy (cooked potato, confectioners sugar, coconut, and bittersweet chocolate. But now I just love to eat my dark chocolate. It’s just my dad and me now and no point in making all the fancy candy when I can just enjoy my daily fix.

    Reply

  2. I definitely can just eat chocolate on its own. I love to mix it with anything salty, dipping gluten free pretzels, drizzling over popcorn or salted nuts.

    Reply

  5. chocolate is my go to sweet – love the contrast of chocolate with nuts, or something salty but I also love unadulterated chocolate on it’s own!!

    Reply

  6. I’ve come to find that using chocolate bar to chop and use in recipes makes a much better product than using chips in my opinion. I love Green & Black’s organic chocolate. It’s definitely a staple in my house. I can’t wait to try this recipe as there are so few ingredients and the pictures look so delightful!

    Reply

  7. Green and Blacks 85% Organics is my FAVORITE! I always keep a bar (or three) in my pantry! For my LCHF lifestyle I can have a bite or two and stay on plan.

    Will definitely be making these truffles and soon!!!!

  8. I’m a drizzled kind of gal! I love to (heavily) drizzle chocolate on cookies, pies, ice cream, salty snacks, bacon…you name it!

    Reply

  9. Every year I make some kind of chocolate candy treat for family and friends but since I’m on a low carb way of eating, I don’t know if I could trust myself around chocolate these days… But this chocolate seems to fit the bill, these look scrumptious!

    Reply

  13. Dark chocolate is great on its own as a special treat, or sometimes I did prunes in a little melted chocolate. I use that for a special treat when I’m exercising and my blood sugar is a little low.

    Reply

  14. I incorporate chocolate every way I possibly can! I love rich homemade hot cocoa, cookies dipped in chocolate, luxury candies and of course straight chocolate.

    Reply

  15. Chocolate is always on my mind and is a large part of my ingredient list for holiday baking! I have grown to love dark chocolate and prefer it over any other type of chocolate. I use it in many of my recipes for the holidays and chop it, melt it, drizzle it, dip it, any way that I can think of to enjoy its flavor and goodness!

    Reply

  16. As far as chocolate is concerned, I consider every day a holiday! I literally eat dark chocolate every day, usually as my dessert/treat at night (though often it’s beside my cup of coffee in the morning, too). At Thanksgiving and Christmas I’ll typically make some kind of decadent chocolate dessert to get us in the holiday spirit.

    Reply

  17. For good dark chocolate like Green and Black, I like to let it slowly melt in my mouth as I savor every wonderful nuance of flavor!

    Reply

  18. I had planned on making a chocolate pecan pie for Thanksgiving but your truffle recipe seems a better choice. I can make them ahead of time too–huge bonus for me. Every Christmas my kids and I make peppermint bark with both white and dark chocolate. We give some away as gifts and it’s our favorite holiday treat, next to real chocolate hot cocoa and homemade brownies. Dark chocolate rules!

    Reply

  21. I’m going to try Green and Black’s chocolate now! Your description of it as well as imagining the bittersweet along with the sweet of the truffle was perfect. I love that it’s fair trade and appreciate the shout out on their behalf. I will make these…right after getting the chocolate! Thank you!

    Reply

  22. I love to just eat the chocolate straight. I stock up on my chocolate bars when they go on sale and keep them in the refrigerator. I can’t wait to try this recipe. This sounds wonderful. I want to make a batch for my family too but my mom hates dark chocolate. Do you think making a batch with milk chocolate would taste good too?

    Reply

  25. Oh man I love chocolate. Dark chocolate! I usually incorporate it into my breakfast if possible and eat some everyday whether plain or with something!

    Reply

  26. Chocolate any way, any time 🙂 I typically use it chopped and included in cookies,scones or other baked goods. I am a fan of Green & Black Organic chocolate – I buy it at my local health food store.

    Reply

  27. “C”… all of the above! We still make candy and dip it, but I have also learned to eat unsweetened chocolate straight and I love it with hot coffee for a snack! (along with my unsweetened tea, coffee, etc. chocolate is just another taste I have grown to love straight and unsweetened)!! I am planning on making these for Thanksgiving this year! They look yummy.. grandkids will love them!

  31. My absolute holiday favorite is actually the cookies with the Hershey’s kiss in the middle! I can’t recall for the life of me what they’re called, but to me they are a holiday tradition.

    Reply

  32. I love grating a little chocolate into my coffee, adding some chips into my pumpkin pies, swirling some into my cheesecake…yup…just eating it, too!

    Reply

  33. I love to chop up some nuts, add a bit of sea salt, and coat in dark chocolate. Then I drop by spoonfuls on to waxed paper to make nut clusters. So good!

    Reply

  34. I make holiday gifts of chocolate dipped pretzels, truffels, chocolate covered oreos. I go through massive amounts lol!

    Reply

  35. This will be my first THM Christmas, so I plan to find new creations like this to incorporate chocolate. I used to dip buckeyes, so I’ll have to find a THM version of it this year:) I would like to add that your dessert recipes are the only fail-proof ones I’ve found so far! I have no fear making one of your desserts and taking it to work or sharing with my family without tasting it first. I can’t say that about so many other THM desserts I’ve dabbled with. Thank you for all the effort to make this site so tasty and wonderful 🙂

    Reply

  37. I always have to make traditional fudge and then low carb treats for myself but have been converting everything over to low carb slowly so the family doesn’t revolt…lol. These truffles are absolutely on my to-make list.

    Reply

  38. I usually have great intentions of making wonderful things with chocolate, but end up just eating it as is! Green & Black makes wonderful chocolate.

    Reply

  41. Well, I have a daughter whose birthday is always right before, right after, or on Thanksgiving. She is asking for a double layer cheese cake and chocolate frosting. So, I’m using your chocolate ganache on top this year. She wanted the same thing last year so maybe it’s a new sorta-Thanksgiving tradition as she is my Thanksgiving baby.

    I do love Green and Black chocolate! Sometimes my husband will bring home a dark chocolate bar for me. 🙂 It’s the best. I prefer it over Lindt, for sure.

    Reply

  47. During the Holidays, I melt the chocolate to make my Basic Homemade Fudge. Christmas would not be Christmas without fudge!

    Reply

  49. I use chocolate to make dipped cookies or truffles, chopped into cookies or bars, melted into a decadent tart, used in the icing of a bundt cake, broken into small pieces and on a cheese/meats/nuts plate… All sorts of holiday goodies!

    Reply

  52. I love dipping various things for the holidays–pretzels, dried fruit, nuts. Add some sprinkles and it’s very festive!

  55. I love making Dark Chocolate turtles for Christmas! They are so good and so easy to make. I try to always make some sort of candy for our sweets table!

  58. I like to melt it and dip things in it like pretzels and nuts and cookies….but I’m just as happy to eat chocolate plain. I love chocolate. 🙂

  60. Great on a cold afternoon or for a simple dessert: a steaming cup of cinnamon or fruit tea along with a couple of squares of dark chocolate and a few pecan halves.
    Love that Green & Black’s is organic AND fair trade!
    Already love your caramel sauce… the truffles are a must!!

  61. I like to mix it chopped into the homemade cave man bars also with1/2 cup pumpkin seeds 1 cup popcorn 1/4 cup cranberries without sugar and then and a few chopped up pieces of choclate or mini choccips

    Reply

  62. I love to make chocolate covered pretzels over the holidays! I love to incorporate chocolate chips and chocolate bits into lots of desserts, especially cookies!

    Reply

  65. I like to melt chocolate and spread it over the crust of a cream pie. I saw a recipe years ago in a cooking magazine where they did that, but on the crust of a pumpkin pie. I haven’t tried that, yet, but maybe this will be the year I finally do.

    Reply

  66. First, I want to say how much I appreciate your blog. As a WLS patient, I need to limit my carbs for health and other reasons (like immediate side effects *ahem*), and so far everything I’ve made from your blog has turned out perfectly. Not one failure, so thank you!!

    As for chocolate? I would eat it even if I melted it on my shoes. So many options. I can’t pick just one.

    Thank you,

    Jules

  75. I eat it straight up (in secret, I don’t like to share my stash with unappreciative kiddos 😉 ) or I bake with it: chocolate chip cookies, seven layer bars with an extra thick layer of chocolate, cake, mmmmm.

    Reply

  76. I have to have choc. Chips in everything! Back as far as I can remember I wouldn’t eat a brownie without chips and I always insisted that chips be put in my shakes cuz I like something to chew on. People used to think I was nuts, but now they are in everything

    Reply

  77. That’s an easy question! I use chocolate in every way imaginable during the holidays. I melt it to make bark, I chop it to add to the top of cakes/cupcakes, I chop it to use in cookies/bars AND I melt it into my homemade pudding. I am the original chocoholic!

    Reply

  80. I’m a certified chocoholic, so I incorporate chocolate in just about every way possible! Cookies, cakes, brownies, chocolate-dipped pretzels, chocolate-dipped cookies, chocolate-dipped dried fruit, chocolate-dipped anything really. 🙂

    I especially love a mug of good rich hot cocoa. It reminds me of when I was young and my mother used to drive us around town to look at Christmas lights. We’d always stop somewhere for a hot beverage to keep us warm. Nothing makes me feel the holiday spirit more than holding a hot mug full of chocolaty goodness!

    Reply

  81. I incorporate chocolate into my baking…holiday and otherwise…any way I can! I’m drawn first to any and every baking recipe that contains chocolate, then i MIGHT pay attention to other!

  85. I’ll take chocolate however I can get it! 🙂 However, my favorite way is over toffee – those two flavors just do it for me.

    Reply

  88. I’m a dipping kind of gal, but I always keep some chocolate in the freezer and have a square or two in the evening!

    Reply

  89. My husband makes the most delicious fudge, and chocolate covered pretzels, neither of which are remotely low carb, sadly. We usually buy one box of Belgian truffles to share with the family, but this year I read the ingredient list, and I think I can make them better and heathier fairly easily.

    Reply

  91. I love to make chocolate gifts for the holidays! My favorite is chocolate covered carmel pretzel sticks. (So bad, but so good) I also make chocolate spoons I gift with a cofee mug at Christmas.

    Reply

  92. Oh dear…I love to chocolate all the things! Honestly, Green & Black is one of my favorite chocolates, and has been for years now. I love to eat it straight, or even add some to your low carb hot chocolate recipe (which is a cold weather favorite of mine). I always aspire to make yummy things like truffles, but I find that I end up eating the chocolate before I ever get around to making them. :p

    Reply

  93. Since having a stroke, I find that making treats (much as I love them) is just too difficult one-handed, but I can still manage to eat them if someone else makes them. If not, I can still eat the bar.

    Reply

  95. Oh Carolyn, words cannot describe how awesome these are! I am a huge chocolate pecan pie fan and now that my husband and I are sugar and grain- free, I thought I would never again enjoy the flavor of the dessert I so dearly loved, but you have duplicated it in this amazing recipe! I am making my second batch in as many days. This will be go-to recipe for candy this Christmas season and beyond! Thank you, thank you!

  122. Snapping off a small piece of a milk or a dark chocolate bar and popping that into my mouth is my favorite way to devour good chocolate. It melts slowly, and I am very happy.

  123. Green & Black’s chocolate is my favorite. I eat it straight. I also coat truffles with it. I love coconut truffles coated with 85% Green & Black chocolate. They’re like mini-Mounds bars, but less sweet. I do them low carb with Swerve and stevia.

  135. I don’t bake for the hoidays I melt. I melt chocolate for fudge. I melt chocolate for what I call Chinese Chocolates. When surveyed after the kids were grown those two holiday treats were their favorites. I simplified by forgetting about cookies and focusing on melting.

    I look forward to trying your truffle recipe!

  138. I am a “choco-holic” ! I pretty much must have at least a piece of chocolate every day! When our kids where at home, every Christmas we would dip “Ritz Bitz” peanut butter filled crackers in chocolate. Apparently it is still a family favorite as my kids are now doing that with their children. I also love pecan pie so I am very much looking forward to trying these!

My chocolate never seems to make it into many recipes because I love to eat it square by square with a nice cup of tea or coffee. It makes a totally satisfying dessert in the evening. I have not had Black and White but I’d love to try it.

  152. We are all chocoholics in my household so we tend to eat chocolate in all shapes + forms. I personally buy dark chocolate bars to divide it into small portions which I slip into snack baggies. I can get my chocolate fix yet feel that I’m practicing portion control.

  156. These look fabulous. When I eat sweets, it usually involves something caramel in flavor. As for chocolate, if it’s not surrounding something caramelish, I am enjoying it more and more just straight up – sans sweetener. Amazing from someone who in my previous sugar-filled life used to crave Cosmic Brownies.

    Reply

  158. The cold, hard, dark truth is I love to serve and eat it an hour or two after a great meal with great friends and family, just that way……cold, hard and dark… right out of the fridge, broken into shards of “wake up, the nights not over yet” crumbled deliciousness! Oh yeaaah! 😉

    Reply

  171. Oh my, yes! Dark chocolate. I can eat milk chocolate to be polite but one of the pleasures of dark is that edge of bitterness. It never palls! Bliss when one discovers a dark chocolate with velvety meltability.

    Ecstasy in the mouth! If you don’t like dark chocolate, that’s okay. More for me!

  172. I love Green & Black dark chocolate as my go to treat after meals. It’s so creamy and I love that it is fair trade. It is also a treat that I don’t have to share because my kids don’t care for dark chocolate!

  184. I have two favorites. I make very simple buckwheat muffins that I keep on hand for an easy ready to eat item. To make dessert like I like to make a sort of dark chocolate thin ganache. I dip the top of my muffin in and my muffin turns (almost) cupcake like.
    Next up is, of course, a dark chocolate hot chocolate!

  185. I use it to make brownies, fudge, cookies, etc. Just about anything that I can think of with chocolate gets made!

  186. I prefer chocolate dark, spicy and soft (melted in the wrapper on the dashboard so I have to lick it off makes me happy). My favorite desserts are truffles, fudge & brownies (always spicy if I’m making it just for me!). A favorite candy bar I make has nuts, sea salt, cayenne, curry, & cinnamon. Once in a while, to switch things up, I add toasted coconut, ginger chunks, orange peel or coffee.

    I love incorporating chocolate all kinds of ways during the holiday- by cooking with it (melted or in cake or cookie mixes), by buying it to eat just by itself or buying it to give as gifts- chocolate covered nuts or regular boxed chocolate! I can’t imagine life without chocolate !
