Chocolate Peanut Butter Date Balls
INGREDIENTS
• 25 pitted dates
• 3 tbsp of peanut butter.
• 2 tbsp of cocoa powder
• 1 tbsp of cocoa nibs
• 1 tsp of organic coffee (Optional)
Coating
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder
• 2 tbsp shredded coconut
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds
METHOD
• Stir the coffee in 3 tbsp of warm water to dilute it. The coffee is optional but it really brings out the chocolate flavour.
• Add all ingredients, except those for coating, to a blender and blend. Once blended, place the mix in the freezer for 20 minutes. This step will make it easier to roll.
• Roll in topping and freeze for another hour.
