Blueberry Chocolate Birthday Truffle Balls

There’s no better way to celebrate a milestone birthday (or any birthday, really!) than with a sweet treat.

Ingredients

• 1 oz. freeze-dried blueberries

• 2 scoops Chocolate (or Chocolate Vegan) Shakeology

• ¼ cup almond flour

• 1 medium cooked white sweet potato, cut into chunks

• ¼ cup reduced-fat (2%) plain Greek yogurt

• 2 Medjool dates, pitted, chopped

• 1 tsp. pure butter extract (optional)

• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

1. Place blueberries, Shakeology, and almond flour in food processor; pulse to blend, or until blueberries are finely ground. 

2. Add sweet potato, yogurt, dates, and extract (if desired); pulse to blend. 

3. Place cocoa powder in a small bowl. Scoop 1 Tbsp. of blueberry mixture and roll into balls.

4. Place balls in bowl, rolling in cocoa powder to coat. 

Recipe Notes

• Freeze-dried fruit can be found at your local supermarket (Trader Joe’s has a great selection) or purchased online. No blueberries? Try a different freeze-dried fruit in the same amount, like bananas, dragon fruit, or strawberries.

• Substitute freeze dried raspberries for blueberries.

• Can’t find white sweet potato? You can also use yams. White sweet potato lends color to the truffle balls, but you can also use your meal-prepped sweet potato.
