Step 1

Line a small baking sheet or any flat surface with wax or parchment paper.

Step 2

Add all ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

Use a 1.5 tablespoon retractable scoop to create tiny bite-sized spoonfuls and place onto the lined baking sheet (9-10 total). Place baking sheet on a flat surface in the freezer and allow to set for 3 hours until bites are fully hardened. I usually leave overnight and enjoy the next day.

Step 4

Enjoy straight out of the freezer. The fudgy bites will start to soften at room temperature after about 7-10 minutes. I typically take them out one at a time and enjoy immediately.
