]]> Shakeology can be used for more than just shakes, and these cake pops are the perfect recipe to start the holiday season off right.

Ingredients

2 scoops of Peppermint Mocha Shakeology

4 large Medjool dates, pitted

¼ cup almond flour

¼ cup unsweetened almond milk

6 lollipop sticks

¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 tsp. coconut oil
