Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
Enjoy these simply as the choco-chip cookie dessert balls they are, or roll these chewy, nutty balls in your choice of topping – goji berries, cacao or coconut – so that every bite is uniquely delicious.
Ingredients
1¼ cups large flake oats
¾ cup unsweetened flaked coconut
¾ cup natural peanut butter
5 tbsp raw honey
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup dark chocolate chips
flaked or shredded coconut, unsweetened cacao powder or goji berries, for rolling
Preparation
1. In a food processor, pulse oats and flaked coconut until coarsely ground, 30 seconds. Add peanut butter, honey, oil and vanilla; blend until mixture comes together, 30 seconds. Add chocolate chips; pulse 10 times to combine.
2. Transfer mixture to a bowl. With wet hands, form 1 tbsp dough into a firmly packed ball. Roll in your choice of topping then place on a large parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. Chill in the refrigerator until firm, 2 hours. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
