2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup raw cashews, roughly chopped
2 teaspoons vanilla coconut milk, So Delicious brand
1/4 cup roasted, salted almonds, finely chopped or- 1/4 cup almond meal

Remove pits from dates and food process them until they're stuck together in a large mass. Empty the dates into a bowl. Add cocoa powder and use your hands to work it into the dates. Add coconut milk and continue mixing. Lastly, add cashews with sea salt and continue kneading until combined. Roll the cocoa-date-nut mixture into small balls about 1-inch in diameter.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your energy balls will taste. Look for organic, non-GMO almonds, cacao powder, and honey.
  • Don't over-process the mixture. Over-processing will make the energy balls tough and dry. Pulse the ingredients in a food processor until they are well combined, but not too fine.
  • Chill the mixture before rolling it into balls. This will help the energy balls to hold their shape and make them easier to work with.
  • Be creative with your toppings. You can roll the energy balls in chopped nuts, seeds, or coconut flakes. You can also drizzle them with melted chocolate or honey.

Conclusion:

These 5-ingredient chocolate almond energy balls are a delicious and healthy snack that is perfect for on-the-go. They are made with simple, wholesome ingredients and are packed with flavor and nutrients.
