Chocolate Almond Butter Balls



I've been super obsessed with nut butters these past few days. ever since my mom bought some of Wild Friends' chocolate almond butter with sunflower seeds from Trader Joe's. Then I went to my Aunt's house who had the same brand's vanilla espresso almond butter, and then vanilla sunflower seed butter. I was totally in love with all of them as I spread them heapingly on my "yellow pancake" for breakfast (A homemade breakfast thing in between a crepe and a pancake). Then I had a few heavenly bites of my sister's yellow pancake with vanilla sunbutter and pumpkin butter. Mmm, hers was amazing! Anyway, since I've been so in love with nut butters, I decided to create these lil' balls of bliss.


Fair warning: sorry for the lack of different angled photos- this has been the first time that my food I'm photographing has urgently called out to me to devour it. These balls are just sooo good.


Plus the best thing, well besides the awesome flavor of course, is that this recipe is single-serve, takes less than 1 minute to whip up, and is only 150 calories. Yep. They also taste even more fabulous with extra almond butter slathered on!

Chocolate Almond Butter Balls 


  • 1 tbsp almond butter
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsps coconut flour
  • 3-4 tbsps almond milk
  • liquid stevia equal to 1.5 tbsps of sugar, or to taste
  • pinch salt
In a small bowl, microwave the almond butter and 1 tbsp of almond milk for 30 secs until melty. Stir until combined, then add in stevia and salt. Next add in cocoa powder and coconut flour 1 tbsp at a time. It should be very crumbly, so add in almond milk 1 tbsp at a time until the perfect doughy texture is achieved. Freeze for a few minutes or eat on the spot.
