These chocolate coconut bites are one of my favorite easy dessert recipes!
I love almond joys, and this recipe is my take on the almond joy. Did I mention it only has 3 ingredients???
I am making this one SO easy on you guys. All you have to do is pit the dates, put them in a food processor with the coconut and blend them together. Next, form them into balls and dip them in chocolate, like you would for Buckeyes, but cover the entire ball with chocolate.
Pop them in the fridge, and they are ready to enjoy!!
Enjoy!
