Notes
Serving this recipe!
These energy bites are delicious all on their own. I think these energy bites look a little like a snowball once they are finished. So, I think they go deliciously with my Melted Snowman Recipe. This recipe is also what I call a ‘Vanilla Fake Shake’! It’s thick and creamy like a vanilla milkshake, but it’s filled with all kinds of healthy goodness but without the calories of a milkshake. It’s a must try! The link for this recipe is located below the picture…
