Description

These No Bake Date Coconut Snowballs are soft, indulgent bites of deliciousness that are perfect for the holidays. The coconut oil adds a sweet flavor and keeps them moist.

Ingredients

Units Scale

1 1/2 cups Mejdool dates, pitted and chopped
2 tablespoons almond flour
1/2 cup cashews, chopped
1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
4 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut, for rolling
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

Toast ½ cup of shredded coconut in a pan over medium heat until slightly golden, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
In a food processor, combine the dates, almond flour, cashews, toasted coconut, brown sugar, and coconut oil. Process until the mixture is well combined and forms a sticky dough.
Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
Roll each ball in the additional 4 tablespoons of shredded coconut until fully coated.
Place the balls on a tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Notes

These snowballs are perfect for holiday gatherings and can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can substitute other nuts for cashews if desired. Make sure to use unsweetened coconut to keep the sweetness balanced.
