Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cashew butter
  • 1/3 cup cocoa butter
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon ashwagandha powder
  • 1 salt

Method

  • Step 1

    In a food processor combine cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla and water and salt. Blend until smooth, scraping the sides as you go.

  • Step 2

    In a small saucepan, heat the cocoa butter. These typically come in a bag of morsels

  • Step 3

    Once it is fully melted, stream in through those little holes in the food processor. Add the cocoa powder 1 tablespoon at a time.

  • Step 4

    Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes until hardened enough to roll into balls. Be careful not to overrefrigerate.

  • Step 5

    Roll into small balls. This makes about 16 depending on how small the balls are. Then roll in cacao powder, beetroot powder, or shredded coconut. I like to do a mix of red and white and arrange them on a plate. They last up to a week in the fridge and are great if you have a sweet tooth!
