Yes, that’s right, despite tasting decadent and festive, these gingerbread cookie dough truffles are made with wholesome ingredients that will make you feel great and give you a lovely boost of nutrients. If you'd prefer not to coat in chocolate, you can double the "gingerbread sprinkle" and roll the gingerbread cookie dough balls in that instead.
