'Happiness Balls' is the perfect name for this dessert because they are guaranteed to make anyone happy!! They're chocolate truffles that come together in literally 10 minutes -- they're genius, and they're the brainchild of cookbook author Melissa Hemsley. 

With only 5 (all-natural) ingredients, these chocolate truffles satisfy my sweets craving like a dream. Melissa also share awesome tips on how to personalize these truffles and how to include your dinner party guests on the fun. 

The recipe for these delicious bites is from her new cookbook, "Eat Happy: 30-minute Feel Good Food."
