I tried to call these “snackballs”, but google told me it’s actually “snack balls”….so here you go – fudgy chocolate coconut snack balls!  I made these a few weeks ago when the small hungry people that live with me wanted a snack and we were a little low on groceries (always easier to get creative with what we have than to head to the grocery with 3 helpers…)  They turned out good enough that I had to make another batch, and then again once school started, for lunchboxes.  So I thought I would share!

Anytime something can be made in 5 minutes in just the food processor, I am in.  Bonus that these have all healthy ingredients and still taste like a little snack ball of dessert!  Literally, you’re just going to add all ingredients to the food processor:

Then pulse/process until well combined, until it looks like this:

Then you just add some water, process again, and done!  IMPORTANT!: You’ll notice that they seem really wet after you add the 3 Tbsp water, but I promise you didn’t do it wrong.  You have to let them sit for maybe 10 – 15 minutes and the oats will absorb it.  It helps keep them from drying out after a few hours, and ultimately gives them the fudgy texture you want.

Store these in an airtight container for up to 3 days!

Recipe Notes

IMPORTANT! You'll notice that they seem really wet after you add the 3 Tbsp water, but I promise you didn't do it wrong.  You have to let them sit for maybe 10 - 15 minutes and the oats will absorb it.  It helps keep them from drying out after a few hours, and ultimately gives them the fudgy texture you want.
