¼ cup unsweetened mini chocolate chips or cacao nibs
½ cup organic almond butter or peanut butter
¼ cup freshly ground flax meal
1 tbsp chia seeds
¼ cup local maple syrup
¼ tsp almond extract or ½ tsp vanilla
1 pinch ground Himalayan rock salt
Instructions
Add all of your ingredients into a bowl and stir to combine. Full disclosure: I use my hands to mix.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes. Once chilled, form desired bite-sized balls - be prepared for a little bit of effort, the mixture tends to be crumbly.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
