How to make Simple Raw Two-bite Treats

To mark this day 11.11.11 when the world turns and becomes an even more exciting and happy place for everyone to be.  I thought I’d share with you a quickie recipe for you to make and fuel your brilliant day (I know it is going to be a brilliant day, a tiny bird told me, AND I went ahead and had a look for myself….(peeking) yep, pretty darn good!).

These raw energy balls are so simple to make.  I adapted the base from my no-bake Banoffee pie recipe (please note the coconut flour is the ‘powder’ found in Asian stores…you could just make your own by putting desiccated coconut in a coffee grinder) by using reducing the salt to a 1/4 tsp.  I halved the mix and added a 1/4 tsp chilli powder and then rolled into balls and dusted with cocoa powder.  The other half of the mix I added a tsp of coffee and rolled in half cocoa powder, half coconut powder. I have also made these with peanut butter and a slice of organic dried apricot in the centre.  If I had some strawberry powder I’d roll them in that…or, oooh, some freeze dried fruit, scrunched up and put in the mix, or a roasted salty almond in the centre.. thumbs up.  Ok, over to you.

 What would you add to make them your own?  We’d love to hear your ideas.

These are lovely, two-bite treats.  You could even make a big batch and store in the freezer so you always have some on hand.   Lovely idea for gifts.

Hey, if you have a day of brilliance you just HAVE to share.  We’d love to hear all about it. We are suckers for a good story. x
