Calories: 144kcal

150 g raw almonds
200 g dried apricots
80 g desiccated coconut
15 g maple syrup (leave out if your apricots are very sweet)
100 g dark chocolate I use 70%
10 g coconut oil optional but it will help make the chocolate topping smooth and creamy

Add the almonds to the Thermomix bowl. Chop for 5 seconds / speed 7.
Add the apricots, desiccated coconut and maple syrup. Blend for 1 minute / speed 8. The mixture should hold together when pressed between your fingers. If it's not there yet, blend for a further 30 seconds.
Add around 1 ½ tablespoons of mixture into each ice cube tray compartment. Press down to compact the mixture. Chill in the fridge until ready to top with chocolate.
Clean and dry the Thermomix bowl.
Add the chocolate to the bowl. Chop for 5 seconds / speed 8.
Add the coconut oil to the bowl. Melt for 4 minutes / 50 degrees / speed 2.
Remove the trays from the fridge. Pour around 1 teaspoon of chocolate over each energy bite. Tilt the tray to ensure even coverage.
Store in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or until ready to serve.
Pop each bite out of the ice cube tray and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
