Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a microwavable bowl combine chocolate chips and melt it. (about 2 minutes).
  • Take it out and stir in cocoa powder until it form a thick melted chocolate.
  • Warm the milk for 30 seconds in microwave again and mix in the melted chocolate.
  • Now, add hemp seeds, chia seeds, flaxmeal, maple syrup and almond butter. Whip it up nicely. Cover the bowl with a thin film or food saver and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 3 hours.
  • In the meanwhile, heat a nonstick pan and saute coconut flakes for about 1-2 minutes at low-medium flame or until it starts to brown. Take it away from the flame and let it cool down.
  • Once, the chocolate firms up and take about 1 tbsp between palms and form a round shape. Roll it in the toasted coconut flakes and set it aside.
  • Repeat the above process for the rest of the chocolate truffle.
  • Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for about a month in an air tight container.

Notes

  • If you don’t have sweetened coconut flakes then you may use 1/3 cup unsweetened dry coconut flakes and mix about 4 tsp powdered sugar to it. Then, heat a nonstick pan and saute it for about 1-2 minutes or until brown.
  • I personally prefer almond butter but you may use any nut butter except peanut butter in this recipe since peanuts would overwhelm the taste of this recipe.
  • Do not use canned coconut milk so as to keep the nutritional value in check. I used the coconut milk that is available in tetra pack or in cartons.
  • This recipe yields 15 energy balls and the serving size is 1 energy ball per person.
  • I have provided step wise images for your reference in the post above.
