These Thermomix Peppermint Bliss Balls are made with all nourishing ingredients and are great for keeping in the fridge for a standby snack. They are also nut free which makes them ideal to pop in a school lunchbox.
These little balls of goodness take no time to make and are packed full of healthy ingredients. The classic combination of mint and chocolate work really well and the cacao nibs give them a lovely crunch.
They’re based on a similar product I always buy at the petrol station every time I fill my car up. It was costing me $3.30 each time so I decided to make my own for a fraction of the cost.

Recipe Notes
- A lot of these types of raw recipes call for Medjool dates, which are larger and more stickier and triple the price. I find that home brand regular dates work just as well.
- If you buy pitted dates, there is a small chance a stone or two is left behind so worth double checking. This has happened to me before and I almost broke a tooth!
- Keep stored in the fridge in an airtight container.
