Made these last night for my very tired daughter & partner whom became parents 4 weeks ago! Very much appreciated. Thank you. A simple and easy recipe, with scrumptious results!

Hi Emily, you can just swap the coconut oil for melted butter, if you prefer. Whether you’re using butter or coconut oil, either will help firm up the bliss balls! The DH team x
