Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 0.25 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (soy-free)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Add the cocoa powder and sea salt to the mixture. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the cocoa powder throughout the mixture.
Gently fold in the soy-free dark chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly dispersed in the coconut mixture.
Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls. You should be able to form approximately 12 balls.
Place the chocolate coconut balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Serve chilled and enjoy these soy-free chocolate coconut balls as a delightful treat. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
