- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for one hour. After one hour, line a baking sheet with waxed paper and, using a small cookie scoop, shape the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on the baking sheet.
- Store the energy bites in a covered container in the refrigerator.
Imperial Sugar Insight
Notes from Cassie: To make classic trail mix, combine 1/2 cup of the following: raisins, chocolate M&M candies, cashews, almonds, and peanuts. Store the trail mix in an airtight container. Alternately, sub in your favorite dried fruit, candy or peanuts to make your trail mix your own!
