- 1/4 cup cacao powder
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup or raw honey
Instructions:
- Mix the nut meal, cacao powder, and maple syrup in a bowl.
- Roll the mixture into 12 balls.
Tips:
- Add 1/4 teaspoon sea salt and 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
- Add essential oils (therapeutic-grade only): cinnamon, orange, peppermint, tangerine—start with 1 drop and increase to 2-3 drops to taste.
