    This mousse is creamy, smooth and oh delicious, so good you wont want to share with the one you love.

    Cacao Energy Balls

    Not a dessert recipe, but everyone loves a chocolate snack. These energy balls are not only good for you, they are loaded with dates and chocolate ....well cacao.

    Highly addictive, one bite leads to several more.

    Chocolate Cherry Cookies

    cookies with loose cherries on top

    Although we are not quite in cherry season just yet, these cookies are made with dried cherries.

    You can switch things up by adding more dried fruit or swapping the cherries for vegan/dairy free chocolate chips.
