Time to read: 2 mins | Time to make: 15 min | Yields: 13 servings
Ingredients
1/3 cup (90 g) hazelnut (almond) butter
3 tbsp maple syrup
1/4 cup (25 g) cacao powder
1 scoop (36 g) chocolate protein powder
1/3 cup (30 g) ground hazelnuts (grind hazelnuts in a food processor)
pinch salt
13 whole hazelnuts
12.5 oz (70 g) dark chocolate
chopped hazelnuts
Method
In a medium bowl, add the almond butter, maple syrup, cacao, protein powder, hazelnut meal, and a pinch of salt.
Mix well until all ingredients are well combined.
Scoop out small balls, place one hazelnut at the center of it, then roll it back into a perfect ball. I got 13 small balls from the mixture.
Place in the fridge until we prepare the dipping ingredients. Chop hazelnuts finely and melt chocolate in the microwave.
Dip a ball into the chocolate and sprinkle with hazelnuts.
Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the fridge.
