Pistachio Date Chocolate Balls
These Pistachio Date Chocolate Balls have a sweet, chewy date and pistachio filling coated in dark chocolate. They are just 3 ingredients. Plus, they are vegan and gluten-free.
Servings: -14 balls
Ingredients
- 8 (160 gr) Medjool dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup (65 gr) roasted shelled pistachios
- 1/2 cup (85 gr) dark chocolate
- Roasted shelled pistachios, finely chopped, for topping
Instructions
- Add the pitted Medjool dates and pistachios to a food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a sticky ball.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll into balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Place the chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Melt the chocolate using a double boiler, or a heatproof bowl placed over a pot of simmering water. Stir until melted. You can also melt it in 20-second increment, stirring well between each interval to prevent scorching.
- Dip each ball in the melted chocolate using a skewer or fork. Tap the fork gently on the side of the bowl to let excess chocolate drip off. Use a toothpick to slide the ball off the fork onto a lined plate or baking sheet.
- Immediately top with chopped pistachios before the chocolate sets.
- Let the chocolate coating set before serving.
