Ingredients:
-1 cup pitted dates
(I buy my dates fromBhavani Cash and Carry on W. Broad Street, where I have found the best prices and selection of dates)
-Approximately* one cup of roasted unsalted nut(s) of choice
(almonds, pistachios, walnuts, and pecans all work well)
-2 tbs cocoa powder
*you can adjust the amount of nuts based on how nutty you like things
**Get creative — add whatever else you have on hand to make these your own — sometimes I’ll add a tablespoon or two of peanut butter, some shredded coconut, and even a pinch of cinnamon!
Instructions:
Step 1: Add dates and cocoa powder to a food processor and blend until smooth.
Step 2: Add nuts and whatever other ingredients that float your boat; process until you get a chunky paste
Step 3: Refrigerate the dough paste for about an hour or until it has stiffened
Step 4: Take roughly tablespoon clumps of dough in your hands and form into balls (or whatever shape pings your pong — I would like to try to roll out the dough and cut out shapes with cookie cutters… maybe give that a try!?
…Eat!
