Servings 20 Bliss Balls

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups coconut
  • ½ cup almond meal
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • Pinch of salt
  • 20 g of freeze dried berries I like to use Little Beauties brand
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • 130 g dark chocolate chopped
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil melted

Instructions
 

  • In the bowl of a food processor, add coconut, almond meal, first measurement of coconut oil, maple syrup, salt, and boysenberries. Blitz on full speed until the mixture looks like pink sand. Add one tablespoon of the water and blitz again. Take the lid of the food processor and try to form a ball. If it is still too crumbly, add the other tablespoon of water. If it is okay, go ahead and roll the mixture into 20 small balls.
  • Chill balls in the fridge for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a microwave in 20-30 second increments on medium-high power. Stir and then repeat until the chocolate has melted. Stir through the second measure of coconut oil.
  • Place a piece of baking paper on a board or tray. Using a spoon, dip each boysenberry ball into the chocolate mixture and roll it around to cover it completely in chocolate. Grate a freeze dried boysenberry onto the coated bliss ball for garnish and repeat with the remaining mixture.
