If you love peppermint, then you will love my raw peppermint and chocolate balls. These little peppermint balls are my family’s favourite amazeballs at the moment. They are super quick to make and great as a little snack when you need something sweet or for school lunchboxes. These snacks are made with all natural, nutrient rich ingredients. A classic pairing of peppermint and chocolate, the amazeballs have the added boost of maca powder with its abundance of vitamins and minerals, making these treats delicious and good for mind and body.
What You Need:
1 cup coconut
¾ cup almonds
1/3 cup coconut oil
4 drops peppermint oil
¼ cup cacao powder
½ cup raisins
2 tbsp cacao nibs
2 tbsp maca powder
1 tsp honey
Extra coconut to roll
What To Do:
- Place all of the ingredients in a food processor or strong blender and process for 2 minutes or until the mixture starts to form together like dough.
- Use your hands to form small balls.
- On a large plate, add the extra coconut. Roll the balls in the coconut until well coated then transfer to a plate.
- Place in the fridge for about an hour to firm up. The balls can be kept at room temperature, but I like them straight from the fridge.
- This recipe makes around 16 balls.
