Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 1/2 cups pitted dates
1 1/2 cups puffed rice cereal ( I use Nature’s Path Organic Rice Puffs)
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup coconut flour (I use : Bob’s Red Mill Organic Coconut Flour)
1/2 tsp sea salt
5 oz (about 9 tbsp) natural unsalted creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup raw honey
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
7 oz 70% dark chocolate, chopped
1 tbsp coconut oil
Directions:
Directions:
Bring a kettle of water to a boil. To a medium heat-proof bowl, add dates. Add boiling water to cover. Set aside for 5 minutes. Remove dates from water with a slotted spoon and reserve 2 tbsp of the soaking water; discard remaining water.
Meanwhile, to a food processor, add rice cereal, oats, flour and salt. Process into fine crumbs. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl.
To food processor, add dates, reserved soaking water, peanut butter and honey. Process until smooth. Add vanilla and process until combined.
Return cereal mixture to food processor and process on high until a soft, sticky dough forms, about 30 seconds.
Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop 1-tbsp portions of dough and roll into round balls with hands. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
Using a double boiler or a heat-proof bowl over simmering water on low, melt chocolate and coconut oil, stirring until smooth; keep heat at lowest setting. Remove peanut butter balls from freezer. Working with one at a time, gently dip in chocolate mixture with a spoon. Let excess drip off, and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes
