Agave Nectar Chocolate Nut Balls

Instead of the typical cake, cookie or sugar cane filled dessert, i decided to experiment with gluten-free, raw, and of course vegan baking. So here is a little somethin' i came up with. Its filled with protein and ingredients that you actually know where it came from, let alone pronounce!
In a food processor, grind up till in small pieces-
1 cup of nuts (3 different kinds; walnuts, pecans, almonds, etc)
1/2 cup pitted dates

Add in- 
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup Agave Nectar
1/2 cup Almond Butter
1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Salt

Mix well, then roll into balls, roll in coconut, and if desired drizzle with organic honey (unfortunately not vegan but so good), then Devour!
(Keep in freezer and pull one out anytime you get the craving!)

One Love <3
