Line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl add the almond butter, maple syrup, sea salt, and almond flour and stir well. Fold in the rice cereal.
Form the mixture into heaping tablespoon-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Pop the sheet into the freezer to set.
Meanwhile, over medium-low heat, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth.
Remove the balls from the freezer and one by one roll them in the melted chocolate and place them back on the baking sheet. Use 2 forks to do this and let the excess chocolate drop back into the pot.
After the balls have been coated dip the fork into the chocolate and drizzle each ball for a layered look. Sprinkle each truffle with a touch of sea salt if desired.
Place them back in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.
Keep these stored in an airtight container in either the fridge or freezer for up to a week.

Are these truffles dairy-free? Yes, they are. Be sure to check the label of the chocolate chips to make sure they don't contain any milk products.
Use two forks to roll the chilled almond butter balls in the melted chocolate as the excess will drip back into the pan.
Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave if you use one. Place in a microwave-safe bowl and heat at 1-minute intervals until melted, stirring each time.
Substitute peanut butter instead of almond butter if you prefer.
