Healthy Chocolate Covered Amazeballs
This recipe was created from random foods in my fridge and cabinet in a four-alarm treat emergency. After I made them up and we all gave them a try, the only word that came to mind was "amazeballs" because I was just amazed at how so few ingredients could make such a delicious treat!!!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 cups pitted dates
- ¼ - ½ cup creamy almond butter you will use more or less depending on how "juicy" your dates are
- ⅛ tsp sea salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- 1. In a food processor, chop dates until they resemble crumbles.
- 2. Transfer to mixing bowl and add sea salt and almond butter, start with 1/4 cup almond butter and add more until you have a paste that can be formed into balls.
- 3. Roll into balls and place on a Silpat-lined baking sheet.
- 4. Put the sheet into the freezer until they are firm.
- 5. Melt chocolate in a double boiler.
- 6. Using a toothpick, pierce the date balls and dip them into chocolate until well coated.
