Coconut Bliss Balls
Serving Size – 10 truffles
Prep Time -15 minutes
Freeze Time – 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
- 9 pitted dates
- 1/4 cup of pecans
- 2 tbs almond butter
- 2 tsps cacao/cocoa powder
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 1 tbs coconut oil
- 4 tsps coconut milk
- dash of cinnamon
- 1 cup shredded coconut/coconut flakes
INSTRUCTIONS
- Soak your dates in some warm water for about 5-10 min. Remove the pits if they come with them.
- In a food processor, add your mix ingredients: dates, 1/4 cup of pecans, cacao/cocoa powder, almond butter, dash of cinnamon & 4 tsps of coconut milk.
- Blend the mix. Will come out sticky but will be a bit “wet” when forming the bliss balls.
- Form small truffle balls and place them on a pan with parchment paper.
- Sprinkle your shredded coconut all over the bliss balls. Roll them around and make sure they get fully covered in coconut!
- In a microwave-safe bowl, warm up 1 cup of chocolate chips + 1 tbs of coconut oil for about 1 minute. Remove and mix so all the chips melt away.
- Drizzle each bliss ball now with chocolate and place them back in the pan with parchment paper.
- Freeze for 30 minutes and enjoy!
