Christmas Edition: Chocolate Fudge Protein Bliss Balls

This is my favourite protein bliss balls that I have created to date. It taste just like chocolate fudge but without the same amount of sugar and saturated fat. It is chocolatey, fudgy and gooey. 👅 And I think they will make the perfect treat/snack for those of you looking for a healthy alternative to a Christmas treat/ snack. They also make the perfect Christmas gift ideas for those of you who like to make your own Christmas gifts 😍
