Peanut Boost Balls

Method

Preheat the oven to 180⁰C.

Place the peanuts on an oven tray and roast in the oven until they are lightly toasted (keep an eye on them while roasting).

Crush the roasted peanuts in a food processor, or place in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.

Cut the dates in half and place in a saucepan, add ¾ cup of water to the saucepan and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Leave to cool.

Lightly toast the coconut in a frying pan.

Sift the cocoa into a large bowl, add the dates, ¼ cup of the coconut and the crushed peanuts. Stir to combine.

Roll into tablespoon size balls and cover with the remaining coconut.
