Chocolate Tahini Bliss Balls

Time: 25 Minutes | Serves: 12

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup of unhulled tahini
• 1/8 cup of maple syrup
• 1/4 cup of finely shredded coconut
• 1/4 cup of almond meal
• 1/4 cup of quinoa flakes
• 1/8 cup cacao
• 1 Tbsp chia seeds
• 1 tsp instant espresso – to help enhance the richness of the chocolate
• Sprinkles
• Cacao
• Coconut flakes

Method

1. Place all ingredients into a medium-size bowl and stir to combine.
2. If the mixture is a little dry add a splash of water (a teaspoon at a time) until it sticks together to form a sticky “dough”
3. Scoop a small section of dough and shape roll in the palm of your hand to shape into bite-size balls, repeat until all the mixture has been used. FYI – I use approx 1 heaping teaspoon per bite which makes them the perfect size for popping into your mouth on the down low so you don’t have to share
4. If you are going to coat your bliss bites in cacao, coconut or sprinkles simple place your cacao, coconut and/or sprinkles into a small bowl or ziplock bag and gently press/shake until nicely coated. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
