Ingredients

0.5 cup 0.5 cup 0.5 cup Almonds, I use raw, unsalted
0.5 cup 0.5 cup 0.5 cup Cashews, raw
0.75 cup 0.75 cup 0.75 cup Dates (Medjool), approx 6 large - pits removed
1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp 1 Tbsp Cacao Powder, Raw, plus extra for coating - optional
0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp Espresso Powder, optional but recommended - you don't actually taste the espresso it just helps to enhance the richness of the chocolate/cacao
1 tsp 1 tsp 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp Coconut, extract or 4-6 drops of coconut flavored stevia
3 Tbsp 3 Tbsp 3 Tbsp Coconut, shredded, plus extra for coating - optional but reccomended
0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp 0.5 tsp Salt

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Place almonds and cashews into your food processor/blender and pulse until crumbly, you want there to still be a few bigger chunks to give the bites some nice texture.
Add dates and process until the mixture starts to come together into a sticky, loose “dough”.
Add cacao, espresso (if using), coconut, vanilla, coconut extract (or stevia drops) and salt then process until well combined.
Scoop approximately 1 Tablespoons of dough into your hands and roll bite size balls then set aside. I feel like I should mention that when I make my bliss bites I tend to make them way smaller than the ones you see in stores or cafes. I prefer to make them on the smaller side because I like being able to just pop one in my mouth on the down low so I don’t have to share I can go about my business. I would say you would probably need 3 of my bliss bites to make up the size of one of those store bought/cafe size bites. Feel free make them whatever size that tickles your fancy, just wanted to put that out there 🙂
If you are going to coat your bliss bites in cacao and/or coconut simply place your cacao, and coconut into small bowls or even just zip lock bags and gentle press (or shake) until each bliss bite is nicely coated.
Enjoy xo

Notes

If you find your dates are a little dry you could try soaking them in some warm water for 10 minutes before you begin, then drain and rinse and make as normal.
