  • Make gluten-free: Use the gluten-free alternatives to the biscuits listed in the ingredients.
 
  • Store: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
 
  • Freeze: Lay truffles on a lined baking sheet, ensuring they aren't touching, and freeze for 1-2 hours until firm. Once solid, transfer to labeled freezer-safe bags or containers and store for 2-3 months.
 
  • Thaw: Allow to defrost overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature until they reach the desired softness.
