Healthy, Superfood Dessert that tastes decadent and indulgent!? Are ya kidding me?

All I gotta say is….BALLS!

If you lived with me you might find me yelling that fairly often.

MORE BALLS!!

I LOVE BALLS!

Okay, I’m done.  But really…I do love these balls.  They’re the perfect decadent dessert substitute without sacrificing any of the flava flave.

If you have a sweet tooth like me, you’ll definitely want to check these out.  They have very few ingredients and are perfect for the 3pm slump and will carry you until dinner.

Did I mention these guys only take about 10 minutes to make? Yep, just 10 minutes to dessert.

You might be wondering how could something that feels so wrong be so right? Well, friend, I have good news.  These balls are filled with nutrient dense foods that are actually good for you!

Cacao is an antioxidant powerhouse, which protect the body from aging and disease.

Dates one of my favorite desserts are truly nature’s candy. They are filled with fiber making them a great digestive support, are rich in protein, and filled with magnesium which helps improve bone health.

Cashews are a great source of healthy fats and are filled with magnesium, calcium, and potassium and can like dates help with bone health.

Healthy Superfood Raw Cacao Bliss Balls

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cashews
• 8 dates
• 1 tbsp raw cacao nibs
• 1 tbsp raw cacao
• 1 tbsp coconut flakes
• 1 tbsp coconut oil
• 1 pinch of Himalayan sea salt

Method:

Put all ingredients in a food processor and blend for about 30 seconds or until finely ground

Use your hands to make the mixture into balls.  I used about 1 tablespoon of mixture

The mix will be crumbly, but it will hold once you start rolling them

Place them in the fridge for a harder ball, if you don’t mind the consistency eat immediately.

Try to just have one.  Just try.
