These little gems are part of my morning routine. I take them with me as a snack and sometimes have them if I want a sweet treat. These Cherry Chocolate Bliss Balls are a functional food, providing the body with a boost of energy and wholefood healing benefits.
Combine all the dry ingredients in a small mixing bowl; ground almond, dandy blend, cacao, maca, cordyceps, salt. Also, add the cherries and chocolate.
Place dates in a bowl. Pour boiling water over the dates to soften them up a bit. Once they are soft drain water but leave at least 1 tbsp of the water behind.
Measure out 1/2 of almond butter and add 2 tbsp of maple syrup to it.
Add the dates and the almond butter and maple syrup mixture to the dry ingredients. Incorporate well.
Form into 18-20 balls. You can let the mixture cool, or with wet clean hands form the mixture into balls.
