• 2 T to 1/2 C Cacao Magic (depending on how chocolatey you want them)
• 4 Medjool dates
• 1/2 C almond meal (I get it from trader joes–much cheaper than any other brand)
• 1-2 T Green Dream
• 4-5 drops chocolate stevia
• 4 T coconut oil
• 1 t peppermint extract (more if you want more)
  
• raw cacao nibs and/or unsweetened coconut flakes for coating

directions:

Melt your coconut oil so it’s completely liquid. In a food processor, mix the dates and almond meal. Then add half the coconut oil, green dream powder and cacao magic powder. Process til it’s not powdery; add a few drops of coconut oil if it is. Add the rest of the coconut oil, peppermint extract and stevia and process until it’s a smooth thick consistency. If it’s too powdery, add more coconut oil. When you get the desired consistency, take out of the food processor and put in a bowl. Here you can add any toppings you want- I usually do coconut shreds and/or cacao nibs or squish a few goji berries into the center. 

Roll into balls and put into fridge over night or the freezer for one hour. Then pop them in your mouth for a delicious, healthy, superfood treat!

Cacao Magic Hazelnut Cake

ingredients (makes 5 2×3-inch frosted cakes): 

• 2 C hazelnuts
• 1 C pitted dates
• 3/4 C Cacao Magic
  
• 1/2 C + 2 T maple syrup or agave, divided
• 1 medium ripe avocado
• Crushed hazelnuts for garnish

directions:

1. Pulse the hazelnuts in a food processor until finely ground into a flour. Add in the dates, 1/2 C Cacao Magic powder, and 1/4 C maple syrup/agve and process until it forms into a thick dough that sticks together.
2. Lay the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper and roll to about 3/4-inch thickness.
3. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into either 8 or 10 equal sized rectangles. If there’s excess dough you can form it into a ball, roll it out, and cut again.
4. Make the frosting by blending together the remaining maple syrup/agave, Cacao Magic powder, and the meat from the avocado until it’s uniform in color and texture. Taste it and adjust the sweetness if need be.
5. Spread about 2 T of frosting over half of the cakes. Layer with another slice and spread an equal amount of frosting on top of that piece.
6. Garnish with crushed hazelnuts.

Berry Bliss Mocktail

• 1 cup pomegranate juice, chilled

To make lemon twists for the garnish, use a vegetable peeler to remove strips of peel from the lemon, leaving as much white pith on the lemon as possible. Blend Berry Bliss and seltzer in blender.

In a pitcher, combine the ginger ale and pomegranate juice. Fill wine glasses with ice. Divide the liquid among the glasses, leaving room for seltzer.
