COCOA BALLS (VEGAN, PALEO)



Cocoa Balls (vegan, paleo) image

Provided by Texanerin Baking

Time 5m

Yield 16 balls

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup (256 grams) unsalted natural almond butter or for non-paleo, natural peanut butter (the only ingredients should be nuts)
1/4 cup (29 grams) cocoa powder
1/3 cup (80 milliliters) maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 to 5 teaspoons coconut flour
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips, optional, I prefer them without! (use paleo/vegan chocolate, if needed)

Steps:

  • Mix everything but the coconut flour and chocolate chips.
  • Add 3 teaspoons coconut flour.
  • Stir for about a minute or until it's firmed up and you can roll the mixture into balls. If it still doesn't seem firm enough to roll into balls, let the mix sit about 5 minutes so the coconut flour has time to absorb the moisture. Then add more coconut flour, if needed.
  • Add in the chocolate chips, if using. That might be easiest with your hands.
  • Roll into sixteen 23-gram (about 1") balls.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week, refrigerate for 2 weeks or freeze for 3 months.

Time 2h35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound powdered sugar (approximately 3 1/2 cups unsifted)
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (3 1/2-ounce) can flaked coconut (about 1 1/3 cups)
Optional: 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts (chopped)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and cocoa; stir in the sweetened condensed milk and the vanilla, mixing thoroughly. The mixture will be quite stiff. Stir or knead in coconut and nuts, if using. A heavy-duty mixer with paddle attachment makes mixing much easier, or use the dough hook attachment on a handheld mixer.
  • Chill the chocolate mixture for about 15 to 20 minutes, then shape into 1-inch balls. If the mixture is sticky, butter your hands if necessary.
  • Arrange the candy balls on a baking sheet lined with wax paper or parchment paper . Cover the candy and chill the cocoa balls for at least 2 hours, or until they are quite firm.
  • Store the chocolate coconut candies in tightly covered containers separated with sheets of waxed paper.
  • Enjoy.
