Have you ever had that chocolate craving sneak up on you, yet you don't have anything prepared and are not really in the mood to bake or make something glorious? If you do, this recipe may be just for you. It was created in such a moment of intense desire for chocolate with no desire for baking. A raw, no-bake, healthy dessert was ours in no time. Blend, Pulse, Scrape, Roll, Freeze and in 30 minutes eat. Okay, sold! Plus the flavors of nut butter, dates, agave, cacao and a dash of salt had my craving scratched especially with the fun outer coating with hints of cacao nibs. This is a great recipe for any time of the year during any time of the day.

Peaceful Preparation:
- Blend the cosmic chocolate ball ingredients together in a food processor.
- Scrape the sides down, continue to process until sticky and combined.
- Mix the righteous toppings together in a small bowl.
- Roll into balls and roll the balls in the toppings. Place on place to freeze. Continue until done. May also press into a cookie shape and press with a fork, sprinkle with toppings. Freeze for 30 minutes and enjoy. Store balance in freezer. I love them the next day.
