Mmm, heck yes. I love berries and chocolate together, and adding coconut to the mix sounds wonderful.

Raspberries and coconut are two of my favorites–thanks for this great recipe that combines them both! I started eating raw in 2008 and this is definitely a recipe that I will try.

My favourite chocolates are those with a sweet filling, as it cuts through the bitterness of the dark chocolate and gives balance to the overall taste and texture.

That sounds so good. I love the combination of raspberry and chocolate. I’m sure these taste amazing. I love that you only need 5 ingredients!

These look good. I am going to have to make some and try them for myself!

i had one thing in mind going through this post, can i have some, can i have some. great steps for it and good to know that even some little meals can go a long way in filling that hunger.

When I first read the title I was thinking it was for breakfast eggs and thought, That’s different! haha! These look so yummy and easy to do!

Haha oops! Is it misleading? I suppose I could’ve added “Easter” eggs in the title but I know not everyone celebrates Easter. Thanks for checking them out regardless! 🙂
