Fudge Babies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup walnuts (120 grams, I used pecans)
1 1/3 cups pitted dates (230 grams, If you want a sweeter result, up the proportion of dates)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 -4 tablespoons cocoa powder, depending on how chocolatey you want the balls to be (Katie used 4T extra dark)

Preparation

Chop/blend all the ingredients, using a food processor, Magic Bullet, etc.
Roll into cutey-pie little balls. (Use plastic wrap if you need to.).
I rolled these into balls, but if you want true brownies, simply shape the dough into bars instead.
**Update*** Version 2:.
Hot Cocoa Fudge Babies!
30 grams cashews, 80 grams dates, 5 grams (1T) dark cocoa powder. Blend. Even fudgier than the original! :).
(Add mint and cacao nibs and you're getting into Wild Bar territory. And if you leave out the cocoa, you have a homemade Cashew Cookie Larabar!).
* Add shaved coconut, mini chips, nuts, or raisins to the mix.
* Moisten truffles, then roll in cocoa powder, sugar, coconut, crushed nuts, etc.
* Add oils or extracts, such as mint or coconut.
* Sprinkle in some ground coffee for a java jolt.
* Extreme Chocoholic Version: Melt some chocolate and add it to the mix when you add the vanilla and cocoa.
