Blueberry Chocolate Bites

This is a fun dessert that you can save in the freezer.   Easy to prepare and easy to save! 

Here is what you need: 

1 cup Cacao Chips (get at least 60% cacao) 
1 1/2 cup frozen or fresh blueberries 
1/4 cup chopped walnuts 
1/8 cup unsweetened coconut chips 

Preheat oven to 175 degrees.

Dry 1/4 cup of blueberries (if frozen, completely defrost) in the oven on parchment paper.  This takes about 3 hours to do.  If you do not want to do this then you can always buy dried blueberries from the store.  

Take a nonstick pan and heat the 1 cup of blueberries and cacao chips together.  Keep heat to medium to ensure hot enough but not hot enough to burn.  Keep stirring/blending the cacao and blueberries together.  When they are nicely blended (you will have chunks of blueberries) take off of heat.  

Place a parchment paper on a cookie sheet and spoon your blended cacao and blueberries on the parchment paper.  Make them any size you want- bite size to cookie size.  I made mine cookie size.  While your bites are still hot, sprinkle your dry ingredients- dry blueberries, walnuts, coconut chips- any other of your favorite dried ingredients.  

Place in the freezer and let cool.   The best way to keep these are in the freezer.  The refrigerator makes them a little too soft.
