Enjoy these blissful bites whenever you want by storing them in the freezer after rolling them to size and coating them in chocolate. You can get creative and swap the nut butter for your preference or incorporate dried fruits or seeds.

Ingredients

• 1 cup peanut-hazelnut butter
• 1 cup puffed rice cereal
• 1 cup shaved almonds
• 1 cup chocolate chunks (for melting)
• ½ cup date spread
• ½ cup cashew pieces
• ½ cup pumpkin seeds
• ½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
• 2–4 tbps. New Roots Herbal’s Coconut MCT Oil
• 1 tbsp. flax oil
• A pinch of salt

Instructions

Begin by warming up ½ a cup of chocolate chunks with coconut oil in a pan on low heat; make sure not to overcook.

Once the chocolate is melted, combine in a large bowl the nut butter, date spread, and melted chocolate. Mix all three ingredients, slowly adding the rice cereal, almonds, cashews, pumpkins seeds, flax oil, and a pinch of salt.

Once you’ve made a paste with the batter, use your hands to make into evenly portioned balls and place on parchment paper to be frozen.

Use the last ½ cup of chocolate chunks and coconut oil, heating it into a liquid once more to be poured onto the bites, then place them back into the freezer for at least an hour before consuming.

Enjoy!
