Chocolate Truffles
(makes about 1 1/2 dozen truffles)
- 2 cups raw walnuts
- 1 cup medjool dates, pitted
- 4 to 6 tablespoons organic cocoa powder
- shredded organic coconut
Place walnuts into a food processor fitted with the "s" blade and process until very finely ground and pasty.
Add dates and cocoa powder and continue to process until well-combined. Add more dates for a sweeter taste and process again.
Roll into small balls and place into a bowl of shredded coconut. Make sure each ball gets coated in coconut, then place on a plate.
Can be made ahead of time and stored in a covered container in your refrigerator until ready to serve.
