Double Chocolate Brownie Dough Balls

Hello September!!

I love Fall and all of it's beauty! Such amazing colors, & warm feelings! I can't get enough of fresh apples & school supplies. :)

September is the perfect time for planning and making fun school snacks and treats. These little bites are adorable, delicious, & perfect for school or work lunches.

This recipe for Double Chocolate Brownie Dough Balls is from OhSheGlows.com  

 

1/2 cup raw cashews

12 Medjool dates (1 cup packed & pitted)

2 tbsp cocoa powder

1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

1 tbsp pure maple syrup

1/4 tsp kosher salt, or to taste

1/4 cup chocolate chips

1/4 cup shredded coconut

1/4 cup chopped walnuts

1. In a food processor, add the cashews and process until a fine crumb. Be sure not to over process and release the oils too much.

2. Now add in the pitted dates and process until chunky. Add in the rest of the ingredients (except walnuts) and process until a dough forms. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Pulse in walnuts so they remain chunky. Add a bit more liquid sweetener if dough is too dry.

3. Form into balls and store in fridge or freezer.

These little bites have the perfect amount of sweetness and pop.

I stored mine in the freezer and they always kept their chew!
