350g Medjool dates, pitted and finely chopped
1/3 cup boiling water
1 ½ cups almond meal
½ cup natural crunchy peanut butter
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 cup desiccated coconut
½ tsp salt
3 glass jars, ribbon and gift tags, to package
1. Place the dates in a large mixing bowl and pour over the boiling water. Allow to stand for 15 minutes before mixing well to form a thick paste. 2. Add in the almond meal, peanut butter, cocoa powder, ¾ of the coconut and salt to the mixing bowl and mix well to combine. If the mixture looks a little dry, add a little extra boiling water. 3. Place the extra coconut in the base of a shallow dish. Using damp hands, roll level tablespoons of the mixture into balls and then roll in coconut to coat. Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm. To package up, place eight balls in each glass jar. Tie with ribbon and a gift tag.
