{raw food recipe} Quick (& Easy! & Delicious!) Cacao Clusters

Let me say first, that I make something similar with walnuts that is pretty much just chocolate-covered walnuts, and that when I make them, everyone FREAKS OUT. I mean, SERIOUSLY FREAKS OUT. So, then you take this recipe from {Natalia KW} and add the texture of the coconut flakes, and I’m out of my mind wondering “why didn’t I think of that?!”. SERIOUSLY, this recipe is easy and will be sooo worth your while! I PROMISE!

What a great way to kick off a week with Natalia! We have six more of her recipes incoming, and the thing I love love love about them ALL is the brilliance and simplicity Natalia puts into them. She is SO GOOD at keeping it simple and yet sharing recipes that are just divine. Like the cheeseball I am, I was so excited thinking about all these recipes, that I just took a break from typing to clap my hands!

HA! SERIOUSLY ~ Enjoy!
