No Bake Carrot Cake Balls

Spring is officially in full swing and I am so pumped.

Warmer weather, blooming flowers, brighter days, carrot cake.

Oh, yes. Carrot cake.

So let's be real, as much as I love the idea of eating carrot cake every day in celebration of spring I don't see that as being very realistic. And the thought of that made me sad. That's when I decided to take matters into my own hands and these carrot cake balls were born. Made from whole foods, a spring snack that you can take with you on whatever adventures you're going on.

Spring cleaning, baseball games, Easter gatherings, long walks; whatever you have going on is a perfect event for this little snack.
