PROTEIN HAZELNUT BLISS BALLS

The title says it all. Got 15 mins? You’ll love these no bake, all natural protein balls that scream holiday flavor. Perfect for any last minute holiday baking and great for gifts.
They are also great all year round and even for pregnancy and postpartum. One of my favorite treats of all time.
You can make it with or without them being dipped in additional cacao powder. They are so easy and delicious.
Keep them in the fridge or freezer for an anytime treat.
Special occasions like a birthday or Valentine’s Day coming up? This is for you. Enjoy!
