Ingredients
Method
- Combine your pecans, almonds, and cocoa powder in your food processor and pulse until you have a crumble consistency, not powder
- Add your dates and pulse until the a mixture is formed, it should resemble a paste (you made need to keep scraping the sides down to help your trusty food processor)
- If your mixture is too thick, you can add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to help you form the truffles (don't add too much or you will get mush)
- Transfer your mixture to a mixing bowl and add your cinnamon and vanilla bean seeds and mix well by hand
- Form your mixture into 10 equal size truffles
- Roll your truffles into the shredded coconut, cocoa powder, both or any other garnish you want. You can used crushed macadamia nuts, sesame seeds, etc
- Store in your refrigerator covered for up to 2 weeks
