Why This Recipe Is So Enjoyable
This dessert is both keto-friendly and vegan, making it perfect for many dietary needs. It uses simple ingredients, so you know exactly what’s in your treat. Plus, it’s quick to prepare and satisfies your sweet tooth without guilt.
Directions
Lin a baking sheet with some parchment paper to keep things from sticking. In a bowl, mix together the almond flour, almond butter, and vanilla extract until it comes together into a soft dough. Roll the dough into small balls, about half an inch each, and place them on the baking sheet. Pop the tray into the freezer for about 20 minutes so the balls can firm up. While that’s chilling, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in short 15-second bursts and giving it a good stir each time until smooth. Once the dough balls are set, dip them into the melted chocolate, then put them back on the baking sheet. Sprinkle some chopped almonds on top for a little crunch, and let everything sit until the chocolate hardens, which should take around 10 minutes. Enjoy your little treats!
