Mocha Fudge Balls

Posted by Lorna Macchia on

I like to keep some raw treats in the freezer for those occasions when friends or neighbours drop in for a cuppa or there is an overriding need for a chocolate fix. These mocha balls were based on a rum ball recipe, with a coffee flavour instead of rum.

Using activated almonds, shredded coconut, and Holy Joe cold drip coffee these balls provide a boost of fibre & a host of phyto nutrients with a delicious fudgy taste.

Gluten Free, vegan
