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-ish 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.
