We love when someone in the office decides to make afternoon treats... and even better when they are guilt free! Our photo editor Rachel made these amazing Raw Vegan Cookie Dough Balls and even made Raw Vegan Chocolate bites to go in them or eat on their own!
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
For cookie dough mixture
- 3/4 cup cashew nuts
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 teaspoon pink himalayan salt
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
For chocolate
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup raw cacao powder
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
STEP 1.
Combine all chocolate ingredients into a food processor until combined
STEP 2.
Spoon out tiny amount onto a plate to make choc chips and freeze whilst you make the cookie dough balls
*The chocolate will melt through once added to the dough. If you want your choc chips to stay hard, freeze for 3+ hours. We did this with out left over chocolate and froze them in shaped ice cube trays
