Storing energy balls

After freezing for one hour, you can remove the energy balls from the freezer and store them in the refrigerator in an air tight container for up to 3 weeks. If you don’t think you will use them in 3 weeks, then place them in a freezer bag and store them in the freezer. If the balls are too hard to eat when removed from the freezer allow them to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
