List of Ingredients
1/8 cup chopped nuts (almonds or pecans are good) (optional)
2 teaspoons unsweetened coconut flakes; 4-5 teaspoons if rolling in coconut flakes
1 tablespoon coconut oil; melted or softened if hard
1 teaspoon ground flax seeds
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon stevia (sweeten to taste) or sweetener of choice.
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Recipe
Set the chopped nuts and 2-3 teaspoons of the coconut flakes aside, if rolling the coconut balls in the mixture. Or you may combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Form the mixture into a shape similar to a flattened macaroon and freeze. The ingredients freeze in about 5 minutes. The coconut treat will pop right out of the bowl and you can eat it like a cookie. Or you can divide the ingredients into two or three small balls. Mix together the chopped nuts and remaining coconut flakes on a flat plate and roll the balls in the mixture; freeze for at least 5 minutes
