No-Bake Raspberry Cacao Freezer Bars
We adapted this recipe from the Choosing Chia blog, and these gorgeous dessert bars look almost too good to eat.
How to:
- Substitute our Raspberry Cacao Smoothie for the raspberry and maple syrup puree and swirl into the coconut cream base instead!
Chocolate Cherry Soft Serve
This decadent-sounding dessert is actually super healthy and easy to make! Think Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia Ice Cream, but without all the sugar and dairy.
This dessert was adapted from a Forks and Knives recipe.
How to:
- Blend 4 frozen (ripe) bananas with ¼ to ½ bottle of our Chocolate Cherry Smoothie.
- Fold in cacao nibs or dark chocolate chips + frozen cherry chunks.
- Enjoy right away or freeze in a loaf pan for future eating!
No-Bake Chocolate Bliss Bites
These healthy, no-bake cookies are so delicious you won’t believe how simple they are to make. Truly bliss in a bite, they’re made with crunchy dark chocolate, creamy nut butter, coconut oil and naturally sweetened with maple syrup.
Thanks for the recipe, A Couple Cooks.
