Ingredients
2 ½
cups
puffed quinoa
1
cup
dark chocolate chips
divided
¼
cup
melted coconut oil
¼
cup
unsweetened cocoa powder
2 ½
Tablespoons
maple syrup or agave
Instructions
Melt ½ cup chocolate in the microwave using 30 second intervals until melted. Stir in between each interval.
In a bowl combine the melted chocolate, coconut oil, cocoa powder and maple syrup.
Fold in the puffed quinoa.
Use a medium cookie scoop to form the crisps into bite-size balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the crisp in the fridge for 20 -30 minutes to let the chocolate set.
Melt the remaining ½ cup chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals, until melted. Stir in between each interval.
Using your hands, dip each crisp into the melted chocolate to create a chocolate base and seal the crisp better. Place back on the baking sheet.
Once you've added the base to all of the crisps, place the baking sheet back in the fridge for at least an hour to let the chocolate harden again.
