Many of us are no longer willing to sacrifice our health in exchange for eating sugary treats during the holidays. But what do you do when you attend a party or gathering and know that desert will be served? I have this trick up my sleeve I will share with you! Four ingredients for a delicious and healthy sweet treat you can eat (and everyone else will LOVE too!) My friend Heidi gave me this recipe several years ago and it's been a favorite ever since, and it's super easy to make.
Ingredients:
3 Cups Coconut (shredded)
1 Cup Raw Cacao (powder)
1 Cup Agave Syrup (I substitute 1/2 Cup honey and add 2 TBS Coconut Oil)
3/4 Cup Coconut Oil
Directions: Warm the coconut oil to liquid while sifting the Cacao powder. Mix the shredded coconut, cacao and agave/ honey with the oil until it is a thick paste and all ingredients are blended. Form into bite sized balls with your hands and put on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Place in freezer until firm. Remove from freezer 1/2 to 1 hour before serving.
Enjoy!
