Chocolate Honey Almond Balls

the80srule's Note:

From "101 Recipes From God's Garden" that I altered. It originally called for carob powder but I decided to make it actual cocoa instead. Can use peanut, sunflower seed, or any other kind of nut butter as well.

• Total Time: 12 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 2 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 12

Yield: 12.0 balls

• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 cup almond butter

OPTIONAL

• dessicated coconut
• crisped rice
• finely chopped nuts (like almonds or pistachios)
• cinnamon
• pumpkin pie spice

Directions:

1. Mix the cocoa or carob powder with the honey until well-blended.
2. Add the nut butter in bit by bit until well-blend. Add spices if you like, I added pumpkin pie spice last time I made these and it was awesome.
3. Wet your hands and form into balls. Roll in coconut, crisped rice, ground pistachios, etc. Or just leave plain.
4. Place on a plate and freeze for at least 2 hours prior to eating. Can be served frozen or cold. Store in a baggy in the freezer.
