I brought these decadent
gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs
to the party! It doesn’t matter if your sweetie this year is a spouse, romantic interest, child, or friend. These gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs are a hit all around!
Whether you make them to share, or just for yourself, they are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Ever since I saw my friend Hayley’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs (and all of her other Brownie Bombs too!) I have wanted to make some gluten free brownie bombs of my own.
With Valentine’s day coming up I thought what better flavor for my first Brownie Bomb than something with raspberries? I love the vibrant red color and the gentle sweetness of raspberries. They go perfectly with chocolate, and are so festive and colorful.
These gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs are super easy to make too! I started off with Canyon Bakehouse’s Gluten Free Brownie Bites (they are dairy free too!) so these brownie bombs are actually no bake! I am a “fudgy brownie” kind of girls and these Brownie Bites have everything that I am looking for. Great chew, not too sweet (but sweet enough), and a great chocolate flavor!
To keep my gluten free brownie bombs dairy free too I used a dairy free semi-sweet chocolate with full-fat coconut milk for the truffle filling. I used the same chocolate with a little coconut oil to make my own dairy free chocolate candy coating too. The addition of just a little coconut oil helps the chocolate to evenly coat the gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs and also helps it to set up smooth and shiny.
All you have to do it make a “thumbprint” in each gluten free brownie bite and then add a little chocolate truffle filling and a fresh raspberry then sandwich 2 gluten free brownie bites together. A quick dunk in the melted chocolate to coat, and then you can top your brownie bombs with a fresh raspberry or sprinkles. Or both! There is plenty of room for you to customize your gluten free brownie bombs and make them just the way you want.
I made another version of these gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs with white chocolate truffle filling. Of course, the white chocolate filling wasn’t dairy free, but I figured any/all white chocolate lovin’ dairy eaters would enjoy them. I can’t decide which version I liked better! You really can’t go wrong with either.
One of my nieces has to eat dairy free. We were going to a family birthday party at Chick Fil A the day that I made these gluten free brownie bombs. I brought some of the dairy free gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs for my niece so that she would have a treat to eat while everyone else had birthday cake. As she was walking around eating her gluten free raspberry chocolate truffle brownie bombs she got several looks from people in the restaurant, disappointed that there weren’t brownie bombs for them to eat too.

- 2 packages Canyon Bakehouse Gluten-Free Brownie Bites (18 brownie bites)
- 9 fresh raspberries to go inside, plus however many raspberries you want to top the brownie bites
- SPRINKLES!
- ½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips
- ¼ cup full fat coconut milk
- 1½ cups dairy-free chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- ½ cup white chocolate
- 2-4 tablespoons cream
- First, make the chocolate truffle filling. Heat the full fat coconut milk in a microwave safe bowl until bubbling (30-60 seconds). Add the dairy free chocolate and stir until smooth. Set aside.
- Make a thumbprint in the top of each brownie bite. Add a little chocolate truffle filling in the center of each thumbprint.
- Place a fresh raspberry in the chocolate truffle filling on HALF of the brownie bites, then top with another brownie bite that doesn't have a raspberry.
- Chill the brownie bombs in the freezer until set (approx 30 minutes.)
- Once the brownie bombs have set, get ready to dip. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
- In a microwave safe bowl melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil by heating for 30 seconds in the microwave, and then in 15 second increments until melted.
- Using a fork, dip each brownie bomb in the chocolate. Gently tapping off the excess before placing on the parchment paper. Top with an additional raspberry or sprinkles.
- Let set at room temperature, or speed it up by popping the brownie bombs in the freezer.
- Heat the cream and white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl until smooth. Microwave for 30 seconds and then in 15 second increments, stirring in between. (If you want a runnier white chocolate filling like pictured use 3-4 tablespoons of cream, for a firmer filling use 2 tablespoons)
You can easily half this recipe, or adjust it to make just the number of brownie bombs you want. 2 packages of Canyon Bakehouse Brownie Bites makes 9 brownie bombs, but if you only have one package half the filling and make 4 Brownie Bombs. Then eat the leftover Brownie Bite. 🙂
LOVE how you used ready made treats to create such decadent treat. The raspberry filler is genius!
Thank you Laura! I thought it was really fun. I had some fresh raspberries and I just couldn’t resist!
These look delish! The perfect chocolatey bite sized brownie decadence!
Thank you Rebecca! They really are. 🙂
The truffle bites are so pretty! And I love how much ganache you put onto them. Makes me think of a ding-dong, but way better.
Best,
Chrystal
I hadn’t thought of that Chrystal. They really are like the ultimate Ding Dong!
OMG stop itttt. These are amazing! And I have tons of CB brownie bites sitting here at home so I know what I’ll be doing with them now!
YASSSS! Make them Lauren! They are sooo good, I hope you love them.
Your truffle filling looks yummy! Can’t wait to try!

Thanks Jules!
This look DIVINE! I love canyon brownies by themselves, but the additions you added are genius!
Thanks Megan. I know, my gluten-eating husband would have eaten a whole package of Brownie Bites if I hadn’t stopped him. They are sooooo good!
These bites are the bomb.com! Seriosly everything I could ever want in a little dessert! Yay for making them gluten-free!!
Thanks Bethany! They were so fun to make (and even more fun to eat.)
These look delish! I could easily eat a whole pan of them by myself! So hand them over! 😉
If these taste even half as good as they sound/look, I’m in heaven!
Thank you, Gay!
Well shoot, how cute and easy are these!! What a great way to show your love to your gf friends/family yet still save some time in the kitchen.
Exactly Ginger! I am glad that you like them. 🙂
I love the combination of raspberry and chocolate! These look amazing! I hadn’t seen Canyon Bakehouse product in my area before but just looked at their website and found a local store to purchase their products. I’m definitely going to have to get some brownie bites!
I am glad that you can buy them locally Sara! I really love all of their products that I have tried. It is really hard to not eat all the brownie bites at once… I hope that you LOVE them!
These look amazing! I can hardly wait to make them for my family!
Thank you Grace! I hope that you and your family enjoy them. 🙂
Thank you for the LOVELY recipes! They are really wonderful. We love to make gluten free treats, and bake often. Your recipes provide some fun options.
Thank you Stephanie! I am so happy that my little piece of the internet has helped you on your gluten-free journey. 🙂
I’ve been getting your emails with recipes. When I click on a link for a recipe, McAfee Web Advisor warns me that Sable.madmimi is too risky, and advises me not to visit the website.
That is odd Nancy. I am not sure why it is doing that. MadMimi is the email service I use to send out my newsletter, and it is safe. I think sometimes McAfee flags things just to be on the safe side.
love all the Valentine treats.. thanks for all the inspiration!
You are very welcome Susan! I know I am inspired. Valentine’s this year is going to be epic!
I have never tried Canyon Bakehouse’s Brownie Bites but anything with brownie in it gets my attention!
I <3 Canyon Bakehouse's brownie bites. It is the quickest and easiest way to satisfy my brownie cravings! I hope you find them Elle.
