Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 cup Medjool dates soak in warm water if firm
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder high-quality brands work best
  • 1/4 cup Natural peanut butter or almond butter; can substitute with cashew or sunflower seed butter
For the Flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract optional

Equipment

  • food processor

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a food processor, add the Medjool dates, unsweetened cocoa powder, natural peanut butter, sea salt, and vanilla extract (if using). Blend on high until the mixture becomes sticky and uniformly combined—this should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. Once the mixture achieves a thick, dough-like consistency, use a spoon or a cookie scoop to portion out small amounts. Roll each portion between your palms into bite-sized balls, roughly 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Place the rolled brownie balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to firm up and improve the texture.
  4. Once chilled, your Date Brownie Balls are ready to serve! Enjoy them fresh as a delicious snack or store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
