Nut Free Chocolate Balls fo Humans


So, this blog has NOTHING to do with animals at all. The recipe we are about to share with you is for HUMAN CONSUMPTION ONLY. Last week I (Steph) came home from work and Lukas had cooked me dinner AND dessert. It has taken 5 years for this to happen, but I guess better late than never (let’s hope it doesn’t take another five years!!).

The dessert was the YUMMIEST chocolate I have EVER tasted!! Words alone cannot describe the divine, delicious, moist taste of these nut free chocolate balls. As such this recipe is too good not share which is why we have randomly decided to include it in our TED-Animals blog.

Lukas made this recipe up himself...yes, I am exceptionally impressed by this as well :) He said he wanted to make chocolate balls that had a moist, creamy consistency as a change to the chocolate balls we make with nuts.

Here is the recipe for the most EPIC and AMAZING Nut Free Chocolate Balls:

Ingredients:
15 fresh organic medjool dates
2-4 tablspoons of cacao powder (or to taste)
¼ cup coconut oil (melted)
1/3 cup desiccated coconut + more to roll the balls in

Method:
1.      Make sure all the dates are pitted. Place them into a food processor until they are of a creamy consistency.
2.      Pour the dates into a bowl and add the cacao powder and coconut oil (melted). Stir until well combined.
3.      Stir in the desiccated coconut.
4.      Roll into balls. Pour some desiccated coconut into a bowl and coat the balls.
5.      If you would like them well presented you can place the balls into mini pattie cake pans.

So there you go, as with all desserts on TED it is simple and easy to make. All the ingredients are provided naturally by the earth...and even though these chocolates are really rich you don’t have to feel guilty about eating them!!




I suggest you all go out and impulse buy these ingredients because it will seriously be the BEST chocolate you ever taste :)

Love & Light xox
