Instructions

Add all ingredients except the water to a food processor and blend for about 20 - 30 seconds.
1 cup dates, 1 cup oats, ½ cup walnuts, 2 tablespoon cocoa powder, ½ tablespoon maca powder, 2 tablespoon chia seeds, 2 scoops protein powder of choice
While the blender is running, pour in 3 tablespoon of water. You should start to see the mixture begin to form a large ball. If not, add another 1 tablespoon of water into the processor. The mixture should be a tad sticky and have formed a ball in the mixer.
3-5 tablespoon water
With a small cookie scoop, scoop out small balls of the mixture. Roll in between the palms of your hands to create a round ball. Then roll the balls in a shallow bowl with cacao powder. Tap the ball a few times in the bowl to shake off any excess cacao and enjoy!
