Method
1) Combine the cacao powder with the seeds in the bowl of a food processor, pulse until combined. Add the salt, spices and coconut and pulse again.
2) Add the chopped dates to the mixture in the processor and pulse until the ingredients begin to form dough. Add the water to smooth the mixture and pulse for a few more seconds.
3) Roll a portion of the mixture between your palms to form medium sized balls. If the mixture is crumbling add more water. Lay them on a sheet pan lined with waxed paper.
Serving Suggestions
The truffles can be rolled in cacao nibs, finely chopped pistachios or crushed buckwheat cereal for a finishing touch
