Ingredients
  

1 cup creamy almond butter

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (your choice for sweetness)

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup protein powder (chocolate or vanilla)

1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Optional: shredded coconut or chopped nuts for rolling

Instructions
 

Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the creamy almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Use a spatula or spoon to mix vigorously until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

    Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add in the rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, protein powder, and sea salt. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined, ensuring the mixture is thick and slightly sticky.

      Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini dark chocolate chips until they are evenly dispersed throughout the dough, ensuring every bite has a sweet surprise.

        Form the Bites: With clean hands, scoop out approximately one tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to shape it into a ball. If desired, roll each ball in shredded coconut or chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.

          Prepare for Chilling: Place the formed balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Continue this process until you’ve used all of the mixture.

            Chill the Bliss Bites: Refrigerate the baking sheet of bliss bites for at least 30 minutes. This chilling time will firm up the balls, making them easier to store and enhancing the overall flavors.

              Storage: Once the bites are chilled, transfer them to an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage if you’d like to enjoy them later.

                  Presentation Tips: Arrange the Nutty Chocolate Bliss Bites on a decorative plate or in a glass jar for an attractive display. Sprinkle some shredded coconut or finely chopped nuts around the base for a visually appealing presentation.
