Minty Fudge Brownie Bites

Ingredients
- 2 cups raw walnuts
- 5 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups Medjool dates, pitted make sure they are juicy!
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt plus more for garnish
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse together walnuts and 4 tablespoons cocoa powder until they form the consistency of crumbled chocolate cookies. Add remaining ingredients and pulse until mixture is sticky and holds together; this should only take 10-15 seconds.
- Turn dough out onto a baking sheet and roll into whatever size balls you like. Mine are approximately 1 1/2" in diameter. Sprinkle with extra sea salt, if using. Freeze, gently covered with plastic wrap, for 20 minutes OR refrigerate for 1 hour before enjoying. Keep leftovers tightly sealed in the refrigerator up to 1 week.
