Let's get into the recipe.

What ingredients do I need to make cacao brownie bliss balls?

• cacao
• almond butter
• dates
• coconut oil
• oat flour
• vanilla

What can I substitute in this healthy brownie bliss ball recipe?

• Almond butter can be subbed with another thick nut butter like cashew, I don't recommend using tahini as it is too liquidy. Sunbutter is a good option if you are allergic to nuts.

Storage instructions for no sugar added bliss balls

The extra bliss balls can be stored in your fridge in a sealed container for up to ~5 days. They could also probably be frozen and thawed as needed but I haven't tried this.
