Dates and Almond Butter Truffles

Ingredients-

1 ½ cup dates

1 tbsp. walnuts

Pinch of salt

1 tbsp. almond butter or peanut butter (organic)

¼ tsp. virgin coconut oil

1 tbsp. shredded coconut Directions- Cut or chop the dates in half.  They will be very sticky. Add the dates along with the salt and walnuts into a food processor. Process until a paste forms, about 4-5 minutes. Form into bite size balls.  If too sticky, rub a bit of olive oil in the palm of your hands. Freeze for 20 minutes. Add the coconut oil and the almond butter in a saucepan and warm up for about 2-3 minutes on low heat. Remove once smooth. Drop the truffles into the almond butter, one by one and coat them in the shredded coconut. Put in the fridge until ready to eat.
