No-Bake Chocolate Hemp Brownie Bites

I have been having SO much fun playing with hemp seeds, that I just had to share this recipe with you before it even makes it into a YouTube video.

Imagine a little energy ball, that tastes a lot like a brownie and is packed with nutrients and heart-healthy ingredients.

Actually, what am I talking about?! You don’t have to imagine because this is it!  This is it right here.

These balls are raw, vegan, gluten-free and have no added sugars (all of the sweetness comes from the dates) so you can feel good about enjoying them as a snack, packed in a lunch box, or as a grab-and-go breakfast for the busiest of mornings.

    Unfortunately I have only deglet dates on hand. Would that foul up this recipe, or are they similar enough that it would work?

      I would soak them in some hot water first to soften them. But other than that, I think they will work.

    Can I substitute cashews for walnuts and cashew butter with peanut butter?
