Chocolate Krinkles V2 And Whole Foods Meal Plan
- Details
- January 11
Last week I filmed my chocolate krinkle recipe, and today I have a whole foods variation of them (and my free 1 day meal plan) for you using dates and cocoa powder instead of chocolate...
I know a lot of you are like me, and like to make ridiculously yummy treats from whole foods when you can, so I made this variation as part of my new 28 day meal plan.
A couple of people were asking me about this recipe in the forum for the healthy eating plan, so I thought to properly answer I would film the recipe for them - and share it with you!
I often make these with carob powder instead of cocoa, and they're phenomenal that way too. I love the flavor of carob with dates, they go really well.
Carob also makes them a bit sweeter than with cocoa, so you might want to use non-dairy milk for moisture rather than the maple syrup if you use carob.
A recent sad development for me is that the only store in my city that sold carob has stopped carrying it!!! Why, Bulk Barn, why?? :( Maybe I need to move to Bermuda...

I hope you enjoy this variation of chocolate krinkles as much as the original! I could eat the whole batch in a day if I'm not careful...
