Chocolate Nut Balls

Eve23

1 oz (1 suare) Baker's all natural unsweetened Chocolate
1 tbsp vegetable oil
5 tbsp water
1/2 c date sugar
3/4 c chopped pecans or other nut

1 In a small saucepan, melt chocolate, oil, and water over medium heat.
2 Reduce heat to low, add date sugar, and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. The mixture will become quite a bit thicker. The date sugar will become softer and blend into the mixture.
3 Remove pan from heat and add the chopped nuts. Stir well
4 Drop chocolate mixture by heaping spoonfuls into 11 portions on a unoiled 9x9 inch glass dish. Let balls cool. To store, place nut balls in a covered container and refrigerate or freeze.
