Add 90 grams of vegan chocolate chips and 125 ml of condensed milk to a bowl and then pop it in the microwave at 30-second intervals to melt all of it together. See full post for more info on microwaving chocolate.
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl: 25 grams of cocoa powder, a pinch of salt and about a teaspoon of vanilla bean paste. Stir everything together until fully combined. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for about an hour until it firms up. You can pop it in the fridge to speed up the process if you are short on time.
Once the cocoa condensed milk mixture has set, scoop a small amount out with a spoon and then roll it up into a ball in your hand. This part is quite messy so you could wear food grade gloves if you want to.
Roll the truffle in your toppings of choice and that's as simple as it is. I decided to roll some in cocoa powder for a more traditional look and some in Valentines coloured sprinkles. See post for more ideas.

Notes
Yield: This recipe yields roughly 20 truffles. The amount will depend on the size of the truffles that you make. I used a teaspoon to scoop out the mixture.
Storage: To keep your No Bake Vegan Cocoa Truffles fresh and delicious, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Freezer Option: If you’d like to make them ahead, flash freeze the truffles in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw in the fridge or at room temperature.
Serving: For the best flavour and texture, let refrigerated truffles sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving. Avoid warm environments, as the truffles may soften quickly due to their chocolate base.
Substitution: If you are unable to find oat condensed milk, sub with your preferred sweetened condensed milk. My favourite is coconut-based.
