Caramelized Orange Bliss Balls

Allergens

Tree Nuts (almonds)

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup agave syrup
• 1/2 cup Medjool dates, pitted
• Zest and juice of 2 oranges
• Pinch of sea salt
• Chocolate glaze: 1 cup dark chocolate chips
• Orange zest for garnish

Instructions

1. In a food processor, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, dates, orange zest, and sea salt. Process until well combined and the mixture starts to come together.
2. Gradually add agave syrup and orange juice while continuing to process. The dough should be sticky but hold its shape when pressed together.
3. Form the dough into 1 inch balls and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4. In a microwave safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 20 second intervals, stirring between each interval. Once completely melted, let it cool slightly.
5. Dip each chilled bliss ball into the melted chocolate to coat thoroughly, then place them back onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle with orange zest.
6. Refrigerate until the chocolate has set, about 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy this cinematic delight of caramelized orange bliss balls.
