INGREDIENTS 🍓 1 teaspoon of Tremella
🍓 1 teaspoon of Beauty Blend 🍓 1 cup cashews (I used raw, unsalted) 🍓 6 large medjool dates, pits removed 🍓 1/2 cup of freeze dried strawberries 🍓 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla 🍓 1 tablespoon of lemon juice (or 1 teaspoon of lemon extract or a few drops of lemon oil) 🍓 1 teaspoon of freshly grated 1 lemon zest 🍓 a generous pinch of salt flakes
Optional for serving 🍓 1/4 cup of finely shredded coconut for coating. 🍓 1/4 cup of freeze dried strawberries crumbled into a fine powder
METHOD
Place cashews in your food processor/blender and pulse until it resembles a fine crumb, you want there to still be a few bigger chunks to give the bites some nice texture.
Add dates, vanilla, Tremella, Beauty Blend, lemon juice, zest and salt then process until the mixture starts to come together into a sticky “dough”.
Add your freeze dried strawberries and process until combined.
Using your hands, roll approx 1 tablespoon of dough into little bite size balls then set aside.
I feel like I should mention that when I make my bliss bites I tend to make them way smaller than the ones you see in stores or cafes.
For the optional coating; 🍓Place your coconut and strawberry powder each into a separate plate or bowl then roll/toss your bliss bites through the either the coconut or strawberry powder until they have a nice light, even coating and set aside. Repeat until all bites are coated. 🍓Once your bites have their delicious little coconut or pretty pink strawberry powder coats on, transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge
