Ingredients
- 8 oz dates
- 3 oz chia Seeds
- 2 oz ground almonds
- 3 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
- pinch of salt optional
- 15 drops of 1000mg CBD oil
To Coat
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/4 cup desiccated coconut optional
Method
-
Add all ingredients into the processor and mix on low speed for about 2 minutes (stop to scrape down the sides if needed) until the ingredients come together to form a "dough". Process for another 2 - 3 minutes if needed to form the dough.
-
If the dough is not coming together (if your dates were too dry for example), you can add a little water or coconut oil - a teaspoon at a time, to get a dough like consistency
-
Turn the sticky "dough" out in to a bowl. Use oil coated hands to fold the dough into one big piece.
-
Roll the "dough" in to small 1 1/2 inch balls. You can use a small, oiled cookie scoop to portion out the dough, or use well oiled hands (preferably with coconut oil).
-
Optional - roll the smooth chocolate chia bliss balls in the coconut or the freeze-dried fruit powder to coat. To avoid sticky fingers, you can place the chia bliss balls in a plastic bag along with the freeze-dried fruit powder, then seal the bag and shake until the bliss balls are evenly coated.
-
Store in an airtight container for a few days. These can be kept in the fridge, but will then get less soft.
