Instructions
1
Prep
Soak 116g pitted Medjool dates in warm water for 10 minutes, drain well. Measure 80g raw cashews, 20g unsweetened cocoa powder, 10g chia seeds, 0.5 tsp vanilla extract, 0.1 tsp fine sea salt, and 8g extra cocoa powder for rolling.

Build
Pulse cashews in a food processor 8–10 times until coarsely chopped with texture remaining. Add soaked dates, cocoa powder, chia seeds, vanilla, and sea salt; blend on medium speed until a thick, sticky dough forms, about 2 minutes.
3
Finish
Scrape down processor sides and pulse 15 seconds to fully incorporate. Scoop dough into 6 portions of roughly 35g each, roll firmly between your palms into tight bites. Roll each bite in extra cocoa powder until lightly coated.

Plate
Arrange cocoa-coated bites on a lined tray, refrigerate 30 minutes until firm. Portion into 2 airtight containers—3 bites per container—and refrigerate up to 5 days or freeze up to 60 days. Serve with fresh strawberries or cherries.
