Energy Ball Cookies (Dairy, Gluten, Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

I am back!  I know it has been a long while since I posted.  Life has been moving a long and my family has been my priority.  December was full of selling my Limestone Living products, toilet training and Christmas.
Energy Ball Cookies (Dairy, Gluten, Grain and Refined Sugar Free) I admit I indulged in too much chocolate this holiday and my body is craving sugar!  It has been tough to get through.  I am trying to cut it all out but have resorted to a few healthier options for those low moments.  This week I made my Black Bean Fudge and today my little guy and I created these energy "cookies."He was very delighted to help and I had a hard time keeping him from eating way too many.  These balls will keep in the fridge or freezer and make an excellent breakfast or snack!
