  • Here's a super simple way to make my Cacao & Almond Energy Balls at home. I wanted them to be as simple as possible so there are only six ingredients. This is the recipe that started it all so I'm so happy to share it with you!!

    Made these with 50/50 of walnuts and pecans bc I didn’t have any almonds on hand. Toasted them beforehand and let them cool.
    Also used 60 grams of crunchy peanut butter instead of almond butter and coconut oil.
    Rolled a few of them in tocos powder to bump them up to “Beautifying Balls” 😂
    Tried one before putting them in the refrigerator and they are amazing! 🤤 ❤
    Was able to make 24 servings ❤
    Thank you! ❤

    These are absolutely amazing, sticky and chewy like a raw brownie. I've been feeding them to my boyfriend on the go or when we have early morning meetings and it has the same effect energy-wise as a cup of coffee. On a blind taste test you wouldn't know you were eating something healthy! I never dared eat dates before I saw your videos. Thanks Ella!

    Just tried these and it was great. Didn't have almond butter but I made my own, added almond and coconut oil in my bullet to make it. Didn’t have dates so I used crab raisins, added a little honey and boom I don’t need to buy chocolate no more. Thanks a million

    Thanks for this yummy recipe! For those who have hard dates just like I had, my tip for you would be to soak them in hot water for like 30mins before mixing with everything else. Then instead of putting cacao powder in the recipe, you can try rolling the completed balls in the powder so they're not sticky from the soaked dates. That's what I did and they were yum :)

    I love that these are keto friendly so I will be making them later today for my sugar fix so thank you. Edit ..I have now made them and they are delicious, great for that chocolate craving fix, perfect for my keto lifestyle. I also made some and swapped out the almonds for walnuts and then rolled them in coconut, also delicious.

      The dates would add a LOT of carbs to these, if you're not aware.
      I'm looking at the recipe and wondering how to 1) eliminate the dates and 2) bump up the protein. A protein powder/collagen powder may work, but will be drying. So the dates need to be replaced with something sticky and low-calorue sweet. I think I've seen a syrup by NuNaturaks--chocolate woukd work since there's cacao; but they have an unflavored and a vanilla, I think.
      It's an interesting recipe, but the dates are an issue for those watching carbs.
