how to make sleepytime almond cacao bites
In just a few simple steps, you’ll have a batch of easy, no-bake almond cacao bites. Perfect for a sleepytime dessert.
step 1:
In a food processor fitted with the S blade, blend the almonds into a fine meal, then add the cacao powder and sea salt; pulse just until combined.
step 2:
Add the dates and process until evenly distributed, then add the almond butter and pulse for 25-30 seconds, just until a clumpy mixture starts to form.
step 3:
Add 1 tablespoon of the almond milk and pulse until the mixture starts to ball up. If it’s still dry and crumbly, add the additional tablespoon of almond milk and pulse until a dough-like mixture forms.
step 4:
Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop, drop the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If you have a scale, each bite should weigh approximately 30 grams.
step 5:
Use your hands to roll into balls, then roll in cacao powder seasoned with a bit of salt. Enjoy!
Almond cacao bites can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to two weeks. They’ll keep in the freezer for 2-3 months.
