Cocoa Coconut Balls Easy Recipes

LOW CARB COCONUT COCOA BALLS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or whisk to mix together the sugar free powdered sugar and the unsweetened cocoa. Then stir in the unsweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, coconut oil and 1 cup of the coconut flakes. At some point you will probably need to knead this by hand.Place this mixture in the refrigerator for at least a half hour to allow it to set.
• Prepare cookie or baking sheets with parchment paper . Place the remaining coconut flakes in a shallow bowl or plate.
• Using a scoop or tablespoon, scoop mixture from the bowl and then shape the mix into balls- about 1- 1 1/2″. Then roll the balls in the remaining coconut and place on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and return this to the refrigerator or freeze to firm up. Store these balls individually wrapped or covered well with wax paper or parchment paper separating the layers if layered.

COCOA BALLS (VEGAN, PALEO)

Steps:

• Mix everything but the coconut flour and chocolate chips.

• 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.
