Instructions
- Drain and rinse soaked nuts.
- In a blender (I use a Vitamix) blend almonds, cashews, coconut, cacao butter, coconut milk and rice malt syrup until well combined (some texture is ok).
- Transfer mixture to a mixing bowl. Add almond meal, cashew meal and vanilla and combine well.
- Halve mixture and add 1 tbsp cacao powder to one portion. Mix well.
- Shape tablespoon portions of each into round balls. Transfer to fridge to set.
- Keep in an air-tight container in refrigerator until ready to eat.

Tips:
- You can replace cashew meal with additional almond meal. You can roll the balls in extra desiccated coconut.
