Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup Salted Cashews 65g
  • ~20 dates 140g
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon Dark Unsweetened Cocoa Powder 5g (Regular cocoa would be great too)
  • teaspoon powder sugar

Instructions
 

  • Put the cashews, dates and vanilla in your processor or bullet.
    ½ cup Salted Cashews, ~20 dates 140g, ¼ teaspoon vanilla
  • Pulse until all the major chunks are broken up a bit.
  • Then keep going until the mixture forms dough balls while it's processing.
  • It took about 2 minutes for me shaking the bullet a bit to get things back down towards the blades.
  • Roll the dough into small balls around 10 g each. According to my calculations you should get 20 - 10g balls but I was only able to make 18. You lose a bit during the process and that includes nibbles.
  • Put the cocoa powder on a plate and loosen any clumps with a fork.
    1 tablespoon Dark Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, ⅛ teaspoon powder sugar
  • Roll the balls until coated well and then tap to remove some of the excess.
