Homemade Snickers Bliss Balls, Gluten-Free and Refined Sugar-Free
Just a few simple ingredients are all it takes to make these delicious, bite-sized Snickers-inspired treats! 🥜
Servings 15
Ingredients
- 185 g raw unsalted peanuts (1½ cups)
- 96 g natural peanut butter smooth or crunchy (6 tbsp)
- 15 –45 ml maple syrup or agave syrup 1–3 tbsp
- 15 g unsweetened cocoa powder 3 tbsp
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Begin by adding the peanuts to a food processor.
- Give them just two or three quick pulses, enough to break them into small, coarse pieces while keeping some of their natural texture.
- Add the remaining ingredients and process until everything is evenly combined. The mixture should remain slightly textured rather than becoming completely smooth.
- If it seems too dry or crumbly to hold together, add a small splash of water and process again.
- Using your hands, portion the mixture and roll it into small, even balls.
- Arrange them on a plate or tray and place them in the fridge until firm and nicely set.
Notes
- If the recipe does not need to be vegan, honey can be used instead. For a naturally sweetened option, substitute 3 to 4 pitted Medjool dates.
- Adjust the sweetness according to personal taste. Starting with less sweetener is often worthwhile, as the palate gradually becomes accustomed to enjoying foods with less added sweetness.
