Cashew Brownie Batter Bites

February 2024

December 2023

2 1/2 cups raw cashews, soaked in water for at least one hour or overnight, rinsed
1/3 cup honey (maple syrup works well, too)
1/3 cup carob powder (you can use cocoa powder instead, but remember that it’s stronger so start with 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/3 cup water (or more as needed to thin the mixture out to blend)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of sea salt
Optional: 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon + 1/8 teaspoon – 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper for a little kick!

In a high-speed blender, blend the cashews, honey, water, vanilla, sea salt and spices until very smooth.
Next, add the cocoa or carob powder and blend until well-combined
Add in the coconut oil and blend LAST – this is what’s going to give these a gorgeous texture
Pour into a bowl (and save yourself some, of course), and place in the fridge or freezer to slightly firm
Now, the messy part! Roll into balls and then into extra carob or cocoa powder. Garnish with a little cayenne if you’d like. You can either store these in the fridge for a softer texture, or in the freezer to make truffles.
