Ingredients
-
1 1/2 cups roasted, unsalted almonds
3/4 cup dates, pitted
3 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt
up to 1/4 cup water, divided
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
Tips
Do not double or triple this recipe in a single batch--the food processor usually won't be able to mix much more than this amount successfully. To make more, it's best to make additional, separate batches.
Directions
Place dates, almonds, cocoa powder, salt, vanilla and 1 Tbsp of water in a food processor
Pulse on/off for several rounds, approximately 30 seconds.
Pulse on/off for longer intervals for about a minute until mixture is mixed enough that it begins to stick together. (If it remains loose and unpacked, added water a little at a time between pulses to moisten.)
When thoroughly combined and "sticky," remove from processor. Roll into 1-inch balls and then roll through unsweetened coconut.
Serve.
Refrigerate for a week.
Serving Size: Makes 24 1-inch balls
