Easy No Bake Recipes - Fun for you and the kids | Pure Beauty Photography Iso Activities

I know that not everyone likes to bake or cook, but these are some great little recipes to try at home - getting the kids involved in measuring and mixing (it's called Sneaky Maths!)

​These are no bake yummy goodness, and if your kids are anything like mine, they will clean these bad boys up super fast! The truffles do require some melting on the stove.

Chocolate Truffles (if you like Lindt Chocolate Balls - then these are your jam!)

340g Dark Unsweetened Chocolate
1/4 cup Coconut Oil
3/4 cup Coconut Milk (or Coconut Cream)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract (Not Vanilla Essence)
1/4 tsp Salt
Maple Syrup to taste

Melt chocolate and oil in bowl over simmering hot water on stove top. Stir in coconut milk. Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla extract, salt and syrup.

Place in fridge 2 hours to set. Remove from fridge and scoop into balls. Coat in desiccated coconut or slivered almonds if you want to be fancy! Place on tray lined with baking paper and refrigerate until set.

These do start to melt once out of the fridge, so only remove when you are wanting to indulge!

Bliss Balls

These are super easy and take no time at all! There are so many variations of these, but here are my kids two favorites. These never last long in our house, and are relatively good for you (I did say relatively!)

Nut Bliss Balls

1/4 cup Honey
1/2 cup Peanut Butter
1 Tbsp Cocoa
1 cup Desiccated Coconut

Place Honey and Peanut Butter in bowl and mix.  Add cocoa and mix to combine. Add coconut and combine. Roll into small balls. Refrigerate overnight or 2-3 hours to set.

Strawberry Bliss Balls

2 cups Desiccated Coconut
1/3 cup Goji Berries
3 Tbsp Strawberry Jam (I used to add fresh strawberries too - about 4 or 5)

Process all together in a blender until well combined and sticking together. Roll into balls and coat with coconut. Refrigerate 2-3 hours to set.

Happy eating!
