    How to Prepare Samoa Ladoos [Vegan]

    1. First, make the ladoos. Line a small baking sheet or plate with parchment paper.
    2. In a large bowl, combine all of the ladoo ingredients and stir together. Allow the mixture to sit for a few minutes to thicken; it is ready when it easily rolls into balls. If it’s too dry after 5 minutes, add a little more almond butter; if it’s too moist, add a little more coconut flour.
    3. Roll the batter into 6 to 8 (1 -inch) balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet or plate.
    4. For topping balls, place the shredded coconut on a shallow plate or baking sheet. Roll the balls in the coconut until fully covered. Freeze for 15 minutes.
    5. Meanwhile, make the chocolate drizzle. Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for 30 to 60 seconds until melted. Mix until smooth, thin, and runny.
    6. Remove the ladoos from the freezer. Drizzle chocolate on top. Return to freezer for 5 to 10 more minutes until the drizzle hardens.
    7. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
