Description
This recipe for raw vegan chocolate brownie bliss balls is pure heaven! A decadent, fudgy, chocolate treat made from only 5 simple ingredients. Bite-sized brownies that are also healthy? Life is good.
Ingredients
1 cup walnuts
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup cacao
1.5 cups packed Medjool dates, pitted
optional toppings – coconut flakes, cacao powder, dried fruit, seeds, chopped nuts
Instructions
1. Add walnuts to the food processor first and pulse into a meal.
2. Add in all of the other ingredients except dates and pulse again to mix.
3. Add in the dates and pulse again until everything is well mixed. The mixture should be somewhat crumbly. If it’s too dry to form into balls, add a little water or plant-based milk.
4. Roll into balls and then roll the balls in the toppings of your choice – coconut flakes, cacao powder, dried fruit, seeds or chopped nuts.
5. Chill in the refrigerator (not you, the bliss balls) then serve and enjoy!

Notes
- Process your walnuts first to achieve a texture that binds best with the other ingredients.
- The salt. I wouldn’t skip it. Salt makes ordinary bliss balls taste more like a dessert than just a snack.
- Store in the refrigerator. They taste best chilled. They also taste great straight out of the freezer.
- Add a little peppermint oil if you’re into chocolate mint flavor. I am.
- You can add 1-2 tablespoons of almond or peanut butter to the recipe if you like.
