Don't these choccie balls look great and I hear they taste just like decadent, expensive chocolate! Those words alone always make my ears prick up. I will make a batch of these without nuts for Miss A's lunchbox (nut free school) as she has been pestering me for something sweet. I don't go for the pre-packaged varieties available and what's more I don't have the cash to splurge on such preservative filled shite. Mini warning - don't ever get me started on that track.
Date, Hazelnut + Cocoa Balls
1 cup dates, chopped finely
½ cup hazelnuts, chopped
1 tablespoon cocoa
3 tablespoon dessicated coconut
Blend dates, cocoa and hazelnuts in a mixer until a rough textured paste forms. Roll into balls and roll in coconut. Keep refrigerated until serving if there are any left, of course.
yummo, love that they have dates in them too
