Healthy Almond Nutella Energy Bites


Let me just apologize right now!!!!!  Once you taste these heavenly creations you will go thru the first batch in a blink. Thankfully this recipe makes some for now and some for later. ;)
Imagine a luscious mix of chocolate-y Nutella crossed with buttery almond butter and cashews. 

Pure delight!!!!!!

Prep Time: 20 minutes 20 minutes
Yield: About 48 energy bites
 

Ingredients

2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup Nutella
1/2 cup almond butter
1 cup shredded coconut
3/4 cup honey
3/4 cup cashews
1/4 cup chia seeds
3 tsp  vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. salt


Directions 
Combine all ingredients together in a food processor and pulse until combined. Cover mixture and transfer to the refrigerator, and let cool for about 30-60 minutes. (This will slightly harden the mixture and make it easier to form into balls.)

When mixture is cool, remove and roll into balls of your desired size. (Mine were about 1-inch in diameter.)

 Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate in a covered container.
