Preparation

Step 1

Drain beans and rinse VERY well. This is important! Then combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until completely smooth. Refrigerate so the coconut oil hardens and the mixture is firm enough to roll into balls with your hands. Once rolled, return to the fridge. (See chocolate coating recipe below.) Store in a covered container for up to a week. Or freeze, being sure to fully thaw before eating.
Chocolate Coating: Either carefully melt chocolate chips with a tiny bit of oil to make a sauce OR combine equal parts pure maple syrup, cocoa powder, and virgin coconut oil to form a thin sauce (about 2 tbsp of each). If the sauce is too thick, very gently heat until it thins out. Dip chilled balls into the chocolate, then immediately return to the refrigerator to allow the coating to set.
