Mango White Chocolate Chip Truffles
For the Cookie Dough:

2/3 c cashews (unsalted, and raw if possible)
1/3 c old-fashioned oats
3 tbsp agave or maple syrup (or combination)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 c dried and diced mango
1/4 c white chocolate chips/chunks + 1/4 c white chocolate chips/chunks for melting and drizzling on top

Directions:

1. First add cashews and oats to food processor and grind into a fine powder. Then, add the agave and vanilla extract and blend again. Finally, add the mango and white chocolate chunks and either stir in by hand or barely blend/pulse until incorporated. Retain some texture.
2. Remove the dough and form into cookie bites. If dough is soft or hard to work with, refrigerate/freeze for 20 minutes prior to forming into bites.
3. After the bites are formed, drizzle them with white chocolate by melting 1/4 c white chocolate. With a spoon, drizzle white chocolate over the top of the bites. Optionally, dip each bite entirely into white chocolate.

Optional: add dried coconut flakes to each ball by rolling them in coconut at the end, or adding 1/4 c dried coconut to the dough. Increase agave/maple slightly if dough is too dry.

Store the Bites in refrigerator or freezer.  Makes about 18 bites
