- Once mixed, line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper and roll the dough like almond butter into little balls, between 1/2 inch or 1 inch
- Place on the sheet and put in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to let the almond butter set
- In a sauce pan over low heat or a double broiler, melt your chocolate chips
- Dip your almond butter balls in the chocolate, you can just dip half or the hole thing and then place back on your parchment paper
- Once all is dipped and back on your baking sheet, place back in the refrigerator for about an hour so everything solidifies. Remove and enjoy
Coconut Griddle Cakes
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup finely ground shredded unsweetened coconut

- Mix the egg, honey, and coconut in a bowl until you get a nice batter. If the batter is a little dry just add another egg and mix well
- Using a frying pan, heat a small amount of coconut oil over medium heat and cook your griddle cakes like you would a regular pancake. The smaller you made them the easier they are to flip.

For the Red Raspberry Syrup
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
12 Ounces of frozen red raspberries
- 1/2 Cup of water
- 1 Tbsp Agave nectar (optional for your sweet tooth)
Steps:
- Place the whole bag of red raspberries frozen into your food processor or blender and chop them up nicely
- Combine those with the 1/2 Cup of water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Continue to stir often so the raspberries will not bubble over the pan (it happened to me, ooops)
- Once you have boiled the raspberries until they are nice and soft after about 10 minutes, turn the heat down to low and get a strainer ready over a bowl
- Pour your raspberries and water syrup through the strainer and push all the moisture out of the raspberries with a spoon
- Pour all the strained water and juice back into your sauce pan and save the chunky raspberries
- Place your sauce pan back on the stove on a low heat and add in the agave nectar and stir well
- Continue to let your syrup simmer until you are done cooking your pancakes and ready to serve, or you can cool it off and use it cold
