Coconut Almond Butter Dessert Bites

written by Little Bites | July 26, 2022

Ingredients

1/4 cup coconut butter
2 tablespoons almond butter (creamy is best)
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
pinch of salt (optional, I didn’t add this because my almond butter was salted)

OPTIONAL CHOCOLATE DIP
1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder (**see note)
1/2 tablespoon coconut oil

Directions

Combine coconut and almond butter in a small bowl. Microwave until melted. Stir with a spoon until smooth.

Add almond extract and salt if using and stir again.

Freeze for about 10 minutes or until mostly hardened.

Remove from freezer and roll into balls. Return to freezer for about 5 minutes.

If dipping in chocolate, melt coconut oil in a small bowl and then stir in cocoa powder until fully incorporated. Dip each ball in chocolate mixture and set down until chocolate sets. Re-dip for a thicker coating if desired and let set again.
Keep refrigerated.
