My favourite bliss balls to date! You get an amazing sweetness and caramel-like flavour from the dates, that pairs up perfectly with the slightly bitter cacao nibs. That way the bites are not overly sweet but still taste like a naughty little treat!
Ingredients
130 g (1 cup) cashews
12 medjool dates, pitted
40 g (1/4 cup) cacao nibs
Instructions
Add the cashews to a food processor and blend them until they become almost like a flour. Be careful not too over-blend so we don’t end up with cashew butter!
Add in your pitted dates and blend again until they form a crumbly and clumpy mixture, about 1-2 minutes on high. Add your cacao nibs, quickly pulse just to mix them in.
Lightly wet your hands and scoop out 1 tablespoon of the mixture onto your palms. Roll into a ball and repeat until you’ve used up all the mixture.
Store in a container in the fridge. Should keep for a couple weeks.
Notes
CACAO NIBS - Can sub for chocolate chips. Just make sure you get dark chocolate and vegan, if needed.
CASHEWS - I haven't tried it, but I'm sure macadamia nuts would work really well here as well!
