• 2,5 dl almonds
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 4 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 7 dates
• 1 tablespoon honey

1, Grind the almonds in a food processor until fine crumbs form.

2, Add the rest of the ingridients and continue processing until fully incorporated.

3, Once the mixture sticks together, proceed to scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the palm of your hand and rolling it between your hands.

4, Pour some raw cacao into a small bowl, and roll the little balls in the raw cacao.

5, Place in fridge for an hour, and then enjoy!

The raw balls keep well for up to 2 weeks in the fridge in an airtight container. You can also freeze them, and then they keep well for up to 2 months!

If your dates are dry, I recommend you to soak them in hot water for about half an hour, and then drain them well before using as directed.
