Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 ounces Dark chocolate
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Chopped almonds
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour and unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix until well incorporated.
Add honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir well until a sticky dough forms.
Using clean hands, scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a small ball. Place the ball on a parchment-lined plate or tray. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
Using a fork or skewer, dip each almond ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated ball back onto the parchment-lined tray.
Sprinkle chopped almonds on top of each chocolate-coated ball before the chocolate sets.
Refrigerate the balls for 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
