Quick & Easy Chocolate Coconut Balls

Ingredients:

• 100g dates

• 75g cashews

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

• 30g dark chocolate

• 3 tablespoons shredded coconut
  

Instructions:

1. Prep the Dates: If your dates are a bit dry, soak them in hot water for 5-10 minutes to soften them up. Drain well before using.

   
   

2. Blend the Ingredients: Add the soaked dates, cashews, coconut oil, cocoa powder, and dark chocolate to a food processor. Pulse a few times until everything is blended into a coarse paste. You want the mixture to be sticky enough to form into balls but still a bit chunky!
   

3. Shape the Balls: Roll the mixture into approximately 16 bite-sized balls.
   

4. Coat with Coconut: Place the shredded coconut in a small dish. Roll each ball in the coconut until it's fully coated. This step adds a delicious texture and extra coconut flavor!
   

5. Chill: Pop the balls in the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm up.
   

6. Enjoy: Once they're set, your chocolate coconut balls are ready to be enjoyed! Perfect for a quick snack or a sweet treat to share.
   

Tips:

• You can also experiment with different nuts or seeds if you don’t have cashews.

• Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding a little more or less cocoa powder, depending on your taste.
  

These chocolate coconut balls are incredibly easy to make, and they’re perfect for when you need a healthy, indulgent snack on the go. Enjoy the rich chocolate flavor with a hint of coconut—it's a combination that never fails!

Happy snacking! 🍫🥥
