Here's what you'll do:
๐น Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8x8โ baking pan with parchment paper; set aside.
๐น In a bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together until combined.
๐น In a separate large mixing bowl, add the butter, sugar, and brown sugar, and whisk until well combined.
๐น Add in the egg and vanilla extract and continue to mix until smooth.
๐น Add in the red food coloring and half of the flour mixture. Mix until combined.
๐น Pour in the buttermilk and continue to mix until smooth. Add in the remaining flour and mix until fully incorporated.
๐น Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, and bake for 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool completely after removing.
๐น Once the cake is cooled, crumble it into a bowl. Add in the cream cheese and Granola Butterยฎ, and mix until combined (you may need to use your hands to make sure there are no large chunks).
๐น Use a mini cookie scoop to scoop out the mixture (~1.5 tbsp each) and roll into balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
๐น Once the cake truffles are set, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a bowl at 30-second intervals in the microwave.
๐น Drizzle the chocolate on top of the cake truffles, and then place back in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden completely (if u can wait that long). Enjoy!
