| Prep | 20 min |
These bliss balls are the perfect combination of ingredients for a satisfying treat.
- Dark chocolate, 4½ oz(s)
- Coconut oil, ¼ cup
- Dates, 8.8 oz, pitted
- Almond meal, ¾ cup(s)
- Shredded coconut, unsweetened, ½ cup(s)
- Cocoa powder, 2 tbsp(s), plus extra for dusting
- Raspberries, 4.4 oz(s)
Method
Place the chocolate and coconut oil into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave, uncovered in 1 minute bursts on High, stirring every minute with a spoon until melted and smooth. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool.
Place the dates, almond meal, coconut and cocoa into a food processor. Pulse until dates are finely chopped. Add the raspberries and melted chocolate mixture and pulse until the mixture almost comes together. Transfer to a bowl, refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm enough to roll into balls.
Roll mixture into 36 small balls, approximately 1 ounce each. Place onto a tray. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm. Dust with cocoa powder. Enjoy 3 chilled bliss balls per serve.
TIP: Bliss balls will keep for 10 days in an airtight container in the fridge. They also freeze really well, place into an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months, they may need a little dusting with cocoa just before serving.
