Hello Everyone,
I love love
chocolates like everybody else and I know how hard it is to restrict yourself
from eating chocolates everyday. Why? Why? I am guilty of eating chocolate
everyday but I can’t help it, it’s too damn difficult. It’s not good and I know
it, but there has to be a way and I found it. Perfect way to eat chocolate
everyday and it’s healthy too. Yay. Today I am sharing this raw chocolate
recipe with all the chocolate lovers out there.
Makes about 25 balls
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of dates (about 20)
- ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups of mixed nuts (i used
almonds, cashew nuts, walnuts)
- 1 cup of desiccated or shredded coconut
How to:
- Soak the dates for 30 minutes
and then remove the seeds.
- Blend your nuts coarsely and
then add your dates and blend again.
- Add coconut and cocoa powder
and blend until a paste is formed.
- Roll the mixture into balls
using your hands and then coat in coconut by rolling.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hrs or
overnight. You can use them for 1-2 weeks in the fridge.
*If you
find mixture is too wet add more nuts and do taste it to see if you want to
adjust the flavours.
