After making this delicious snack it’s smart to store them in the freezer. Not only to delay the expiration date, but also because otherwise you will probably eat them all at once. They are that good! For this recipe, you can pick between all of Batavia’s Dutch coffees namely, Yirgacheffe, Santuario and Limu. However, staffs pick would be Limu. Limu coffee has a traditional coffee taste, characterized by pure chocolate and caramel flavors. A delicious coffee which is good both pure and in combination with chocolate. The Limu is grown in the shade of the forest Beletta in the Limu region in Ethiopia. The combination of coffee, chocolate, nuts and coconut in this recipe makes these balls a delicious snack to enjoy with your coffee. You can also eat the chocolate coffee balls served as desert or after a workout! Without further ado, this is how you can make Chocolate coffee balls with coconut at home!
