Directions

Add 1.5 cup roasted hazelnuts to a food processor and pulse into a coarse crumb. Add almond meal, cacao powder, Chief Dark Chocolate Collagen Powder, 1 tbsp melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt, and blend just until the mixture sticks together when pressed. Add extra coconut oil if needed.
Roughly chop the remaining ½ cup hazelnuts and fold them through the mixture.
Roll 1 tablespoon of mixture into a ball, press a whole hazelnut into the centre, and reshape. Place on a lined tray and freeze for 15 minutes to firm.
Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, roll in and return to the lined tray.
Place in your freezer until the coating is firm [approx. 20 mins]

In which part of the method do you add the collagen powder, almond meal and vanilla? Am I missing something or is the recipe incomplete?
