Instructions

  1. First, add filling ingredients to a mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
  2. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to scoop dough into 1 inch balls. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  3. Place baking sheet in the freezer for 20 minutes to harden.
  4. After 20 minutes, remove pan from freezer.
  5. Next, make chocolate coating. Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments, stopping to stir between each increment.
  6. Once melted, dunk each ball of dough into the melted chocolate. Push around with a fork or spoon until fully coated.
  7. Then, place back on baking sheet. Repeat for each ball of dough.
  8. Sprinkle sea salt on top if desired.
  9. Return pan to freezer to freeze for 20 minutes or until hardened.

Notes

  • Filling dough will be somewhat thick but reminiscent of cookie dough.
  • Use creamy almond butter (not chunky).  Creamy peanut butter or cashew butter work well too.
  • All nut butters are different.  Add more coconut flour if needed to achieve a thick cookie dough like substance.  See photo above for reference.
  • Freeze balls of dough until they are hardened and no longer sticky.
  • Melt chocolate and coconut oil in 30 second increments.  Stop to stir until smooth.  Mine only took 1 minute total of microwaving.  Do not burn!
  • Use a fork or spoon to roll balls of dough around in melted chocolate.
  • Freeze again until chocolate coating is completely hardened.
