Lamington Buckini Bliss Balls

Bliss balls – so convenient and so handy!

There isn’t a lot to say about these bliss balls other than that they’re delicious, and that coconut, cashews and buckini’s make such a good combo together.

My cousin was headed away camping for the weekend and I was popping over to say hello. I’m a terrible guest. I always go over there and she has platters of fruit and nuts etc for me, and I never bring anything.

So, this time, I was determined to take something with me, and this is what I brought.

The buckini’s and the dates provide the sugar. If you don’t have buckini’s then you can substitute for something like oats, but I’d probably add a touch of maple syrup to bring it together. If you want more sweetness, add more buckini’s, or more coconut/cashews and some maple syrup.
