Chocolate Coconut Nut Balls


This is an easy, highly nutritious delicious snack that kids and adults will love.
The balls keep for several weeks in the fridge. They are prone to melting in hot weather though so if you are taking them hiking put a few in a glad bag and be prepared for them to come out a little sticky.

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups of ground nuts. A mixture of almond and brazil works well
125ml almond spread
1/2 cup raw cacao powder
2 large handfuls of shredded coconut
100g softened butter
4 tablespoons coconut oil or pure cacao butter
vanilla essence
1/4 cup chia seeds

Mix all ingredients and add a little more ground nuts if the mixture is too wet.
Roll into balls and refrigerate for an hour. It's that simple and very healthy.
