- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Chocolate protein powder
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup Natural peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chocolate protein powder, and unsweetened shredded coconut. Mix until well blended.
Add in the natural peanut butter, unsweetened cocoa powder, honey, vanilla extract, and salt to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture begins to come together.
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Add the water gradually, a tablespoon at a time, mixing continuously until the mixture becomes sticky and holds together.
Using your hands, take approximately two tablespoons of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat this step until all the mixture is used, making about 12 balls.
Place the balls on a plate or tray and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Store the chocolate coconut balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
