I saw a similar snack for sale at a store and of course my thrifty instincts told me that I could easily make a comparable snack for much less money at home. It was effortless. It takes me longer to clean my food processor than make this snack (okay sight exaggeration but you get the point).
I’m not going to write on for days about these little bites, I’ll just give you the highlights:
-
They are delicious
-
There are only 6 ingredients = Easy
-
They are raw, as in you don’t have to bake/cook them
-
They make a great snack when you need something small but filling in-between meals, or when hangry hits (hungry + angry)
-
Grain and Gluten-free…and free of a lot of other things
-
For fun I calculated the calories: there are about 70 kcal per bite and 3.5 grams of sugar…but who’s counting
-
They are chocolaty…need I say more?
-
Your husband and/or family may attempt to gorge on them, so hide some for yourself…to help with their portion control of course
I’ve prepared and froze some for one of our
upcoming summer trips. The fat from the coconut helps keep me full when my meals are scattered during times of travel.
Hope you enjoy this tasty treat!
