Caramel and coconut filling
  1. Add the dates, coconut oil, almond butter, vanilla and sea salt in a food processor and process until smooth (approx. 1-2 minutes) to make the date caramel mix.

  3. Transfer the mix into a container and freeze for 30 minutes.
  4. Scoop out heaped tablespoons and shape into round balls.
  5. Place onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  6. Once all of the filling mixture is used, freeze for a further 20 minutes to set.
Chocolate coating
  1. Add cacao powder, coconut oil, and maple syrup to a double boiler (put water in a pan over low heat with the mixture in a bowl on top of the water) and whisk together until melted.
  2. After the balls have set in the fridge, dip individual pieces in the melted chocolate and sprinkle with desiccated coconut. Place it in a tray lined with parchment paper.
  3. Return the tray to the freezer for 15 minutes to set the chocolate.
