Calories 124kcal
Ingredients
- 100 g coconut flakes + some more to cover the raffaello balls
- 150 g coconut cream top of refrigerated coconut milk can + 2 tbsp coconut milk/cream (for chocolate cover)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 25 g vegan dark chocolate or chocolate chips
- 10-20 hazelnuts/almonds optional
- a pinch of salt optional – to elevate the flavors
Instructions
- Mix coconut flakes, coconut cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Make sure the consistency is solid (add more coconut flakes if too moist or coconut cream if too dry).
- Roll bliss balls and push a hazelnut into the middle of the ball (optional, can be replaced to almond or skipped altogether).
- Melt dark chocolate/chocolate chips in a microwave or on the stovetop, stir in the coconut milk.
- Place part of coconut bliss balls onto a tray covered with parchment paper or a plate and cover with liquid chocolate. Top with some coconut flakes, if desired.
- Roll the rest of the bliss balls in coconut flakes, making sure they are well-coated. Place next to the chocolate-coated balls and refrigerate for an hour (quick fix is to place them into the freezer for 15 mins instead).
