Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Place nuts in food processor/high speed blender on pulse, and blend on high until the nuts are finely ground.
Add the cacao and salt.
Pulse to combine.
Add the dates one at a time through the feed tube of the food processor while it is running.
The end result will look like crumbs, but it should easily stick together when you press the mixture together (if not, add more dates).
In a large bowl combine the ground nuts/dates with the remaining ingredients.
Place this mixing bowl into the fridge for about 20 minutes to cool/harden.
After chilled, roll the mixture into bite sized (about 1 tablespoon) balls and roll in the palm of your hand. Do this until the mixture is all rolled.
Place rolled brownie bites onto a flat sheet or plate to cool before stacking into an airtight container for storage.
Place in freezer or fridge until ready to serve.
Store in an airtight container.
These stay great in the freezer for long safe-keeping!
Enjoy!
