Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup natural almond butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (or cacao nibs for a healthier substitute)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, and a pinch of sea salt. Use a whisk or spoon to thoroughly combine these dry ingredients until well incorporated.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix these wet ingredients with a spoon or spatula until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir well until everything is evenly mixed. If the mixture feels too sticky to handle, gradually add more cocoa powder or rolled oats, mixing until you reach a workable consistency.

        Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips (or cacao nibs), ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the mixture for delightful bites of creamy chocolate in every piece.

          Shape the Bites: With clean hands, scoop out approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the formed bite on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. Repeat this process until all the mixture is rolled into bites.

            Chill: After shaping all the bites, place them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This chilling step helps the bites firm up, making them easier to handle and refreshingly cool.

              Store: Once chilled, transfer the bliss bites to an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or frozen for up to 3 months for an easy and healthy snack option.
