Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients.
  2. In a food processor, combine the pitted medjool dates, shredded coconut, almond flour, cocoa powder, almond butter (or peanut butter), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Pulse until the mixture is well combined and sticky.
  3. Take small portions of the mixture and roll them between your hands to form balls about 1-inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Refrigerate the bliss balls for at least 10 minutes to firm them up.
  5. Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring between each until smooth.
  6. Remove the bliss balls from the refrigerator and dip each one into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are evenly coated. Place them back on the parchment-lined sheet.
  7. Allow the chocolate-covered bliss balls to set in the refrigerator for another 20 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
  8. Serve your Chocolate Coconut Bliss Balls at family gatherings or keep them in an airtight container for a tasty treat throughout the week.
