After years of failed diets, these little tiramisu desserts have taught me how to fill myself up without guilt or blood sugar spikes!

Protein tiramisu truffles are a sweet yet balanced solution for those who want to combine taste and health. This preparation is suitable for those following a low-sugar diet, those monitoring their blood sugar , and those concerned with satiety and weight control . Thanks to the presence of Greek yogurt or light ricotta , rich in protein and low in simple carbohydrates, these sweets support muscle mass and promote a prolonged feeling of fullness.

The sugar-free biscuits , combined with a natural sweetener like erythritol , help maintain a stable glycemic index, making this recipe suitable even for those with insulin resistance or prediabetes . Finally, the bitter cocoa provides polyphenols with antioxidant effects and a bold flavor that satisfies the palate without the use of refined sugars.

This recipe can be included in a healthy, balanced diet . It’s ideal as a snack, post-workout dessert, or as a healthy alternative to processed snacks.

Servings: 15-20 truffles

Calories

Total calories: approximately 950 kcal (variable based on the ingredients used)
Calories per 100 g: approximately 180 kcal

Ingredients

200g of whole Greek yogurt (or well-drained light ricotta)

120g of biscuits without added sugar (or classic pavesini)

2 tablespoons of unsweetened cold coffee

2 tablespoons of bitter cocoa powder

1 generous tablespoon of erythritol (or equivalent natural sweetener or sweetener drops of your choice)

Procedure

Finely crumble the biscuits in a large bowl, until they resemble coarse sand.

Add the cold coffee a little at a time, stirring with a spoon to evenly absorb the liquid and soften the mixture.

In another bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the erythritol until you obtain a smooth, creamy consistency .

Fold the softened biscuits into the yogurt mixture, stirring slowly to prevent the mixture from becoming too runny. The result should be firm but workable.

With slightly damp hands, take small portions of dough and form uniform balls of about 20-25 grams each.

Dust each truffle with bitter cocoa powder.

Arrange the truffles on a tray lined with baking paper and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour , so that they compact perfectly.

Advice

For a thicker consistency, you can add a spoonful of almond flour to the mixture.

It is recommended to store truffles in the refrigerator , covered, for up to 4 days.

For a more elegant effect, serve the truffles in single-serving paper cups .
