I'm sure this recipe has been posted before but since I just made them today, I thought I would let you know how they turned out!


Verdict is DELICIOUS!! Fudgy, nutty, chewy. They are awesome.

Enjoy!

The recipe:

Ingredients:

15 pitted dates
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup whole roasted unsalted almonds
1 tbsp honey (agave if vegan)
2 tbsp water (or more if needed)
3 tbsp confectioner's sugar

Directions:
Add almonds to your food processor and pulse until ground. Add dates, cocoa powder, honey, and water. Mix until it forms a sticky mass. If it seems too dry, add a little water, 1 tsp at a time. Wash hands and using damp hands (keep sink running) measure 1 tbsp and roll into a ball with the dough. Set balls on parchment paper.
Put confectioner's sugar in a bowl. Roll balls in your hand and then roll in sugar.
Can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.


Though I will say, I just looked in the fridge and the confectioner's sugar did "melt" into the balls. But they still taste fine! Just not as pretty.

bump looks yummy, but it would just have to be fudge balls for me because I am LC and don't do sugar. Thanks for recipe
