• 1 Cup of Nuts and Seeds* - e.g. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, sunflower seeds. TIP! Dry out the pulp from making your Nut Mylk and replace with 1 cup of nut “flour”
• 1/2 Cup Coconut Desiccated 
• 1/2 Cup Dates 
• 1/2 Cup Cranberries, plus extra for decorating 
• 1/2 Cup Raisins 
• 3-5 Tbs Cacao - Hello Superfood!*
• 1 tsp Cinnamon 
• 1 tsp Ginger (ground or fresh)
• 1 tsp Cardamon
• 1 tsp Nutmeg
• 2 Tbs Orange Zest 
• 2 Tsp Coconut Oil (melted)
• 2 Tbs Desiccated coconut for garnish
• Optional Water* 

• Soak dates, cover with boiling water. After 2 minutes drain water off and set dates aside.
• Add all ingredients into blender/food processor except the garnishing coconut and water. Blend until all ingredients are combined, add water as needed if mixture is dry. Mixture should have formed clumps and be sticky enough to roll into balls. Add more coconut if mixture is too wet.
• Roll mixture into small balls, roll in desiccated coconut and press in some cranberries on top. Store in airtight container for up to 4 days, or pop in freezer to make them last longer!
