Coconut balls dipped in chocolate

adapted from: https://minimalistbaker.com/5-ingredient-dark-chocolate-macaroons/

8-10' at 350 F
Makes 18-20 small cookies
(I line baking sheets with foil to try to keep gluten contamination down.)

1. Use food processor to make into a rolling dough like consistency that can be squeezed into balls.

• 8 oz package, about 5 cups coconut chips (that's all we had available) Only 1 package fits in my food processor so made batch twice and combined them.

 2. Add through food processor opening while running

• scant 1/2 t. vanilla extract
• 3 T maple syrup

(Note: Do not put dough in fridge before rolling into balls. It gets very hard.)

3. Roll about a teaspoon of mixture between hands to make balls and put on baking sheet.

I didn't brush tops with melted coconut oil and sprinkle with leftover crumbs. Maybe that would have browned the balls.

4. Bake 8-10' at 350F, let cool. Move to wax paper covered cookie sheet.

5. Dip bottoms in

• 1/2- 1 c melted dark chocolate chips (I had extra so made chocolate "X" on top of cookies

This recipe looks interesting.
