Chocolate Drizzled No-Bake Apricot Cashew Balls [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Serves

28-30

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups of dried apricots
• 1 cup raw unsalted cashews
• 1/2 cup smooth cashew butter
• 1/4 cup desiccated coconut
• 2 tbsp coconut oil, slightly warmed
• 1/3 cup dark chocolate

Preparation

1. In a food processor add the cashews and blitz on high until they resemble a coarse soil. Then add the apricots and blitz again until they are broken into small pieces.
2. Add the coconut, coconut oil and cashew butter. Process on high until the mixture starts to come together. It will form into a sort of sticky dough.
3. Using a teaspoon, scoop out the mixture and then using your hands roll them into a ball.
4. Place on a parchment lined baking tray and then chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
5. Whilst the balls are chilling, prepare the chocolate drizzle. Melt the chocolate to a heat proof bowl over a saucepan of boiling water.
6. Using a spoon drizzle the chocolate over the balls and then put them back into the fridge to set for around 30 minutes.
