Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Cashews

Start by grinding the *roasted cashews* in a blender or coffee grinder. You want them to be finely chopped but not pureed.

Once ground, transfer the cashews to a mixing bowl and set aside for later use.

Step 2

Combine Ingredients

To the bowl with your ground cashews, add *cocoa powder* and *a pinch of salt*. Mix these dry ingredients together thoroughly.

Next, gradually incorporate the *pitted dates* and *coconut oil* into the mixture. Use your hands to knead the mixture until it becomes *smooth and cohesive*.

Step 3

Form the Candy

With the mixture ready, take small portions and roll them into balls approximately the size of a walnut. You should get about 12 to 15 pieces, depending on the size.

Place the formed candies on a plate lined with parchment paper.

Step 4

Chill the Treats

Now, it’s time to refrigerate the candies! Set them in the fridge for at least *1 hour* to firm up.

For an added touch, you can roll some candies in more cocoa powder, crushed nuts, or dip them in chocolate before chilling.

Step 5

Serve and Enjoy

Once chilled, these *delicious chocolate candy treats* are ready to serve! They make a perfect snack or a lovely gift.

If you want to make pitting the dates easier, soak them in *hot water* for *20-30 minutes* before peeling.

*Enjoy your sweet creations!*
