Valentines Day Cacao Mint Cremes

1 c shredded coconut
1 c cashews
1/2 c macadamia nuts
2/3 c agave
1/4 c mint leaves ribs and stems removed
2 tsp peppermint extract
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp lemon juice
pinch salt
1/2 c coconut oil, melted
1 c chocolate maple glaze (1 c maple syrup, 1 c cacao powder, 2 T coconut oil melted, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp vanilla - blend until smoothe makes 1 cup)

To make coconut flour blend up the shredded coconut in your Vita mix until it is a fine flour....I use a coffee grinder until my Vita Mix dream comes true, blend everything till smoothe except the chocolate glaze that is for dipping the mint cookies) place mixture in fridge until it begins to harden, Roll into a log and cut medallions off, refridgerate until very firm and dip in chocolate glaze...store in fridge or freezer!

These look sooo yummy I can't wait to make them!
