INSTRUCTIONS

​​

Coconut Filling:

• Combine dried coconut, extra virgin coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, flavouring and salt in a food processor. Mix until well combined.

• Using a cookie scoop or measuring spoon, shape the dough into small coconut balls. Put them on a plate lined with baking paper or plastic foil (to prevent them from sticking to the plate).

• Place the balls in the freezer while you prepare the chocolate coating.

 

Chocolate Coating:

• Combine the melted coconut oil, cacao powder, maple syrup and salt in a blender. Blend for 15 seconds or longer, until smooth.

• Take the balls out of the freezer and cover each one with chocolate sauce.

• Place the balls in the freezer for at least 15 minutes until they are firm.
