Raw Vegan Chocolate Coconut Balls


Ingredients:
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 4 tbsp organic coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp honey or agave
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 3 tsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp raw cocoa
Steps: 
  • Mix all ingredients together and let them blend together for about 10 minutes
