Carob Balls

Directions

1. 1
   In a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter and sweetener. Stir over med-low heat until melty.
2. 2
   Remove from heat.
3. 3
   GRADUALLY add the carob powder and stir it in- ditto the sesame seeds.
4. 4
   It's easier to roll into balls once the mixture has cooled a little, so if you can, let it sit 5-10 minutes or even refrigerate.
5. 5
   Scoop up a chunk with a spoon and roll it into a walnut-sized ball (1 inch) in your fingers. Put it in a small bowl with the coconut and shake the bowl around till the carob ball is coated.
6. 6
   Store the balls in the fridge. They freeze great, but you'll have to let them thaw or they'll break your teeth!
