The original recipe is from HERE. I am really excited to explore the website for some more paleo deliciousness...
What You Need:
1 1/3 C Walnuts
2/3 C Cacao Powder
40 Pitted Dates
2 Tbsp Vanilla
4 Tbsp Coconut Milk
1/2 C Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
What You Do:
- Process coconut in food processor and set aside in a small
bowl. This is for rolling the balls in at the end.
- Process cacao powder and walnuts (this makes that
wonderful powdery mess so be careful when you open it, also don’t over process
or your walnuts will be too fine)
- Add dates and vanilla to processor (you might want to soak
the dates in water for a few minutes before adding them to soften them a bit)
- Add coconut milk and vanilla and process until a dough is
formed in the processor. This is where I thought the dough was going to kill my
precious food processor, stop before it starts to wine at you, it gets pretty
thick.
- Put dough in a bowl and put it in the fridge for about 2
hours, or overnight… or I put it in the freezer for about an hour… it just has
to be cold.
- I chose to make 1/2 inch balls… more to share and more
bite size. I rolled the balls than rolled them in coconut.
- Keep them cold until you serve!
Again, I doubled the recipe that is listed on the website link because I was making them for a large group. I rolled 1/2 inch balls and the recipe made about 80 of them. I put the recipe into My Fitness Pal and this is the result of one serving: Cal. 53, Carb 10g, Fat 2g, Protein 1g.
