Instructions
Prepare and Form the Balls
Add all date ball ingredients to the bowl of a food processor and pulse them for a couple of minutes until everything is completely combined.
Using a scoop or a tablespoon, scoop out the mixture on a plate. Now, roll them into balls between the palms of your hands.
Refrigerate for an hour or freeze for 30 minutes.
Melt the Chocolate and Coat the Date Balls
Dip one date ball at a time, submerge it into melted chocolate, and carefully lift it out using a fork. Place them lined on a sheet pan.
Garnish: top the truffles with coconut flakes, and chopped walnuts, or drizzle more chocolate if desired.
Refrigerate the date truffles for at least an hour to allow the chocolate coating to set. Once the chocolate is set, store them in an air-tight container lined with parchment paper, for up to 3 weeks.
