Ingredients
You will need a food processor to combine your ingredients.
Each recipe will have the following base:
1 Cup Nuts (Almond, cashew, pecans..)
1/2 Cup Medjool Dates (you may need more or less based on the size/consistency of the dough)
Note: You will want to use medjool dates as these are the best for this kind of recipe due to their sticky gooey nature.

1/2 Cup Dates (roughly 5 dates)
2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
1 Pinch of Sea Salt
1 Tsp Molasses
Cocoa Nibs
Chia Seeds

Preparation
Chocolate Brownie Bites
Place nuts in your food processor and pulse until you get a fine grain. Add sea salt and cocoa powder and molasses- pulse to incorporate. Next, add half of your dates (make sure you've pitted the dates to remove seed). Pulse to incorporate and check the consistency. Add remaining dates and blend until a ball forms. You should be able to pinch the dough to form a ball. Shape your dough into walnut size balls, roll each ball in chia seeds and top with cocoa nibs. Place in the fridge for 30-60 minutes.
