Don’t tell anyone that these Chocolate Brownie Bites are really Vegan Date Nut Truffles before they have actually tried them.

It is pretty unfortunate how labels can change your opinion of things.  Blame it on gut reactions, snap judgements.

For instance, if you make this snack, put it up in your break room at work, with a cute little post-it note that says “Chocolate Brownie Batter Balls” I assure you they’ll be snatched up before the 2nd pot of coffee is made.

If, however, you choose to label them as “Gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, vegan date-nut truffles” they’ll be largely ignored.

How can something so “free” of everything we love (carbs! sugar! fat!), be worth the calories?

In truth, these unassuming “healthy” treats were better than any refined and processed sweet I received on the oodles of Christmas goodies trays delivered to work.  They are irresistible.  Truly. And if the healthy label scares you, just call them Brownie Batter Bites.
