Ingredients

  • 200 g raw cashew nuts
  • 100 g desiccated coconut - plus extra for rolling
  • 50 g coconut oil
  • 50 g organic maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla bean paste - or extract
  • 100 g dark chocolate - roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients, except chocolate, to mixer bowl and blend for 15 sec/speed 8/MC on.
  • Use spatula to redistribute ingredients, and blend for another 15 sec/speed 8/MC on.
  • With damp hands, roll walnut sized balls. Tip: squeeze the mixture initially to compress, then roll. Ensure hands are kept damp. If your hands are hot, they will go oily but this will not impact the final product.
  • Put balls in the freezer for 20 min.
  • After 20 min, add dark chocolate to mixer bowl, mill for 10 sec/speed 9/MC on. Scrape bowl down. Melt for 3 min/50°C or 120°F/speed 2/MC on.
  • Pour chocolate into a bowl and extra desiccated coconut into a second bowl.
  • Coat the frozen bliss balls in chocolate, and then coconut one at a time.
  • Refrigerate for 30 min or until needed.

Notes

To make these into a quick slice, simply press into a slice tin and coat with chocolate then coconut.

  1. This recipe is a smashing success. I was quite surprised at how light and fluffy they were.
    After a bit of trouble I kept my chocolate in the tmx bowl as this kept it warmer and liquid for longer. Holding the bowl at an angle to pool the chocolate, I used a skewer to spin the truffle to coat before then placing in a bowl of coconut.
    These were a huge success with everyone at our Australia Day celebration. Thanks for another fantastic recipe xxx

  2. Great Aussie day treat, thanks Nikalene! The leftover oil residue was left in the bowl & I made choc peanut butter date balls afterwards to use it up. Double the treats this week!

  3. Oh these are delicious! What a treat for Australia Day. I think I’m going to try the frozen raspberry in the middle too. Thankyou so much Nik…you are a genius!!

  4. Yum – hubby declared this delicious and he has not liked any bliss type balls I’ve made to date. Thanks Nik x

  5. Made these balls yesterday and half have gone already. Made 2 changes tho; toasted the coconut and put a frozen raspberry in the middle of half the balls for those who like their lamingtons with jam 😉 Even my very fussy food critising hubby who nibbles at the other bliss balls i make, then puts them directly back in the fridge with a ‘yuck’ has given the thumbs up to these. And that is saying something!

  6. Delicious!
    Needed more chocolate because mine coated quite thickly.
    Winner for very fussy Miss 3 too, even without the chocolate x

  7. These were fantastic. My batch made 18 decent sized truffles. They seemed a bit oily when rolling them initially but once set and covered in the chocolate they were perfect.

  8. Made these twice in one day.
    Totally totally delicious and you can’t stop at one. Thank you again for another amazing recipe:).

  9. OMGoodness Nik, these are AH-MAZING!!! Hubby has just come home & polished 2 off for ‘lunch’ before I put them away & told him no more…& I’m fighting Master 8 off too!!!! Not letting Miss 6 or Miss 3 anywhere near them!!!! Thank you

  10. Thanks for a delicious gf & DF treat! I love them more than a traditional Lamington (which I will never be able to eat again anyway as I have coeliac disease!) My daughter was drooling & falling into the fridge as she was pinching one & eating it off the plate before the fridge was closed!! Lol!! YUMMO!!

  11. made these today and they are lovely. I’ve got gestational diabetes at the moment, so I substituted the maple syrup for sugar free maple syrup and added two natvia satchets (about 1tsp of natvia) to the mix instead of regular maple syrup. Still delish! And low on carbs and sugar so it works well for the GD.

    My only question is, I didn’t have 70% dark chocolate, only nestlè dark choc chips, when melted they are really thick, so I’ve got a very thick layer of chocolate on the outside of mine. Is 70% dark choc thinner??

    1. I think each chocolate is different, some contain more fat and also thickeners and emulsifiers which cause different results… You can thin it next time with some added cream or coconut cream before melting xx

  12. Delicious! Substituted macadamias for the cashews and coconut milk for the coconut oil because that was all I had in the cupboard. Master 3 wants them without the chocolate and I had to hurry up and get them in the fridge because vast quantities were being consumed. They will be awesome when I get the chocolate on the outside, thanks for sharing xx

  13. These are awesome and perfect for taking in the car for a healthy snack if we think we might be out past lunch time and the most delicious treat for any time :), so easy to make as well. Thank you Nikalene

  14. Hi Nik,

    Can I use almond instead of cashew? I have a child with cashew nut allergy. Or any other substitution suggestion?

    Thanks!
