- 3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut, divided
- 4 cups Medjool dates, pitted

Instructions
- Blend Ingredients In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine your almonds, one cup of coconut, and dates. Pulse until combined, regularly scraping down the sides. Add your cocoa powder and continue blending until a thick dough remains.

- Shape Energy Balls Transfer your energy bites dough into a mixing bowl. On a large plate, add the remaining two cups of coconut. Using your hands, form 24 small balls of dough, rolling each one in the coconut until completely covered.
- Chill and Serve Place energy balls on a plate and refrigerate for at least an hour, or until firm.
Notes
- Refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the energy balls to firm up.
