Dark Chocolate Covered Pumpkin Bites
These remind me of a Reesees cup- pumpkin/holiday style. Anything with Dark Chocolate in it is amazing.
Something quick to whip up, no baking involved.
These go great with blender coconut milk ice cream!
Happy Thanksgiving friends!
Notes for Dark Chocolate Bites
You can either make the chocolate by melting coconut oil and cacao OR You can make dark chocolate sauce by melting 1 and 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1/4 cup coconut or almond milk.
- The coconut oil sauce will be thinner then the chocolate chip sauce and not cover the balls as thick.
- This recipe makes about 10 bites- double if you want more!
- Can use 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon ginger if you do not have pumpkin spice.
- You can try to use almond butter or another nut butter instead of coconut butter, but I have not tried that with this recipe yet, let me know if you do! 🙂
- Can sub stevia if you would like for the maple syrup.
