Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Bites
  • 1 cup pitted dates soaked in warm water for 10 minutes
  • 1 cup raw walnuts or any nut of your choice
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey for a non-vegan option
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract for flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt to enhance flavor
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips optional, for added texture
For the Topping (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder for dusting
  • 2 tablespoons shredded coconut unsweetened, for rolling

Method
 

Prepare the Mixture
  1. In a food processor, combine the soaked dates and walnuts. Pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. This step helps to break down the dates and nuts, creating a sticky base for the brownie bites.
  2. Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Scraping down the sides as needed ensures all ingredients are incorporated.
Form the Brownie Bites
  1. Once the mixture is smooth, fold in the dark chocolate chips using a rubber spatula. This adds a delightful texture and extra chocolate flavor.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using your hands, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Chill and Serve
  1. Refrigerate the brownie bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up. This step is crucial as it helps the bites hold their shape.
  2. If desired, roll the chilled brownie bites in cocoa powder or shredded coconut before serving for an extra touch. This adds flavor and makes them visually appealing.
  3. Enjoy your no bake brownie bites as a quick snack or dessert!
