These little bundles of joy have been a staple in my fridge since I started my gluten-free diet. They are made solely using ingredients you can have in your store-cupboard at any time. They are gluten-free, grain-free, vegan, raw and free of processed sugar. I dare you not to love them. To make it even better, you can make truffles like these or simple brownie bars. Great for sweet snack or as a compliment to a good cup of coffee.

Description
There is something incredibly satisfying by being able to put together something like this, just using what you have in the cupboard.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of mixed nuts (I use 1/2 almonds and 1/2 hazelnuts)
- 1 cup of dried dates
- 5 tablespoons of cocoapowder
- 4 tablespoons of shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons of agave sirup
- Tiny bit of salt
- Crushed nuts, cocoa powder and coconut for sprinkling.
Instructions
- Chop the nuts in a food processor until you have a rough flour with some bigger bits still left.
- Add the dates and chop in the food processor until the dates are integrated with the nuts and start sticking to the blade.
- Add the cocoa powder and coconut.
- Then add the agave sirup and a tiny bit of salt, whilst the food processor is on. Depending on your food processor, it might start struggling here. If that is the case, integrate the last ingredients in a bowl using your clean hands.
- Roll the mixture into walnut sized balls and roll in your preferred topping. Alternatively, press the mixture into a cake tin, refrigerate and cut into brownie sized bars.
- The brownies will keep forever in the fridge in a sealed container.
