If hot chocolate doesn’t SCREAM holidays, then I’m not sure what does. I’ve always been a chocolate fiend, so this was easily my favorite festive drink growing up, and really nothing has changed on that front! While these little bites resemble my many energy ball recipes, the result is a little softer and more decadent, making them the perfect dessert to whip up this holiday season. Make a batch of these superfood-filled truffles to satisfy your sweet tooth or share with family and friends this Christmas!
