Vegan - Double Chocolate Brownie Dough Balls

By BlueSchmoo

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup raw cashews
• 12 Medjool dates (1 cup packed & pitted)
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 1/4 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup shredded unsweet. coconut
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a food processor, add the cashews and process until a fine crumb. Be sure not to over process and release the oils too much.

2. Now add in the pitted dates and process until chunky. Add in the rest of the ingredients (except walnuts) and process until a dough forms. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Pulse in walnuts so they remain chunky. Add a bit more liquid sweetener if dough is too dry.

3. Form into balls and store in fridge or freezer.
