Ingredients
- 2 cups dried dates, pitted
- 1/4 cup raw walnuts
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse the dates to create a thick paste. Add the walnuts, vanilla and 1/4 cup of the coconut and pulse until incorporated and a thick paste forms again. Using a spatula, transfer the date mixture to a medium bowl.
- Pour the remaining 1/4 cup coconut into a separate small, shallow bowl.
- Using a spoon, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the date mixture and, with clean hands, work into a small rectangular bar 2 to 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch (or roll into balls). Coat the date bar with the coconut in the bowl, delicately pressing the coconut onto the bar. Continue with the remaining date mixture and coconut.
- Serve in mini paper cupcake liners. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Love These
These are so good and healthy! I store mine in the refrigerator to firm. I also like to throw one in my smoothie in the morning.
I made these using the Dried dates, like the recipe states, and they came out just like in the show. It took a while in the food processor to get the right consistency, so you need to be patient. Tasted pretty good, too.
I haven’t made but it should be clarified that these are not dried dates. Just the dates you buy in the cartons at the grocers.
