1 Tbspcoconut oil

Instructions

Step 1

Place raspberries into a large bowl and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Once softened, mash with a fork.

Step 2

Add in the desiccated coconut, protein powder, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mash and mix until well combined.

Step 3

Line a tray with baking paper. Scoop the mixture into your hands and roll it into balls, making approximately 10. Place onto the tray and set aside in the freezer for 40 minutes to firm up.

Step 4

Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring between each, until fully melted. Optionally, melt the chocolate and coconut oil over the stovetop in a double boiler until melted.

Step 5

Line a plate with baking paper. Using a fork, dip each protein ball into the melted chocolate and turn until it’s fully covered. Place onto the lined plate and set in the fridge for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the chocolate has set. Enjoy! Store in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
