Description

Directions

• Place your dates, nuts, cocoa powder, and peppermint extract in a food processor. Process on low until course crumbs form.
• If your mixture is not holding together due to the lack of moisture in the dates, add a few teaspoons of water a little at a time while your processor is running until the crumbs stick together and form into a ball. Be careful to not add too much water as the mixture should not be sticky, just wet enough to hold together.
• Remove mixture from food processor and form into Tbsp size bites by rolling between your palms.
• If desired, roll the bites into the crushed candy cane or coconut. Enjoy!
• Store in an air tight container in your refrigerator or freezer.
