WelleCommunity member @edgarraw, has created these delicious protein-packed Rum Rum Balls perfect for a snack throughout the day.
½ cup of Nourishing Protein Chocolate
2/3 cup unsweetened desiccated coconut
1 cup dry roasted almonds
10 medjool dates, pitted
¼ cup pomegranate seeds (optional)
¼ cup of coconut oil (melted)
2 tablespoons almond milk
2 teaspoons rum
Add everything (except pomegranates and almond milk) into a food processor or high-speed blender and process until the large pieces of nuts and dates become small.
Process until the mixture looks like a dough ball. If it isn’t, and this could be due to overly dry dates, add mixture into a large bowl, add 1-2 tablespoons of almond milk and mix well, then add the pomegranate seeds. Mix well with your hands, then using a small ice cream scooper, scoop and roll them into spheres with your hands.
To make these last more than a week, freeze them in a closed container for up to 3 weeks, but only if you have not included pomegranate seeds.
MAKES APPROX 26 BALLS.
