Chocolate Bounty Blueberry Bites
Get into the festive spirit with these vegan Chocolate Bounty Blueberry Bites, made with juicy blueberries and simple ingredients. They’re ready in 20 minutes and perfect any time you want a fun, fruity treat!
You can totally get creative with these! You can shape them however you like, whether it’s little round bites, hearts, or even mini eggs like I did.

And you don’t have to stick to blueberries either—swap in whatever fruit you like!
Oh, and while we’re on the topic of epic treats—have you seen my Rocky Road Easter Chocolate Clusters? So good. Or if you’re into rich and dreamy desserts, check out my No-Bake Chocolate Orange Mousse Cake with Crunchy Oats (it’s got a surprise crunch you’ll love).
