    Really easy and tasty. I didn't have enough craisins so made up the remaining 60g with dried apple. Swapped sesame seeds with extra cashews as I didn't have any, omitted the cocoa powder. Smile

    Delicious and my vegan daughter loved them too. I found the mixture a bit crumbly so I added 70g more cranberries

    Made another batch today without the cocoa, and they are yummy AND a much better colour...had I used blanched almonds the colour would have been even better! Hubby reckons they taste like chocolate crackles...go figure!

    Made these today....lovely flavour, however disappointed by the colour change to the mixture once cocoa added. Was looking for a contrast in colour to other chocolate bliss balls I had made as well. Will try with less cocoa or none next time. Thank you.

    Loved by adults but not so much the kids. I swapped the sesame seeds for chia seeds as per another comment. A great, easy snack.

    Nice but I think I was a little heavy on the cocoa as the chocolate seemed to overpower the cranberry... oops!

    Like a lot...yum. I just used almonds not cashews and put in chia seeds instead of seasame. Thanks!
