100 g pitted dates, soaked for 30 min – 2 hours, until soft

Then add the dates and 2 teaspoons of the water, coconut oil and cacao and pulse until the mixture turns into more of a dough. Add more water if you need more moisture, or add more coconut if it’s too wet.
Shape small balls from the mixture with your hands and place them on a baking sheet.
