Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 500 g before cooking, which is about 40 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Place the pitted dates in a high-speed food processor and pulse until they form a thick, sticky paste or a ball.

  2. Add the nut butter, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt to the food processor.

  3. Process the mixture until all ingredients are fully combined and a dough-like consistency forms.

  4. Scoop about one tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll between your palms to form smooth balls.

  5. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals or using a double boiler until smooth.

  6. Dip each brownie ball into the melted chocolate to coat, then place on a parchment-lined tray.

  7. Sprinkle a little extra sea salt on top of the wet chocolate if desired.

  8. Place the tray in the refrigerator for at least 20-30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set before serving.

Notes

Store these bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months. If the dates are very dry, soaking them in hot water for 10 minutes before processing is essential for the right texture.
